Check to make sure calipers are not upside down (i.e., L on R & R on L) Bleeders need to be on top. "My friend" made this mistake.

I would be looking at the rubber lines from the hard lines to the calipers as they deteriorate from the inside out and will swell up not allowing brake fluid to move through. There's probably another one at the rear axle that goes from the hard line on the body to the hard line on the axle.

No pedal on slow application but firm on fast application is the classic sign of a master bypassing.
