In fact, since the air was introduced up at the MC, you'll have to bleed LOTS of fluid thru each wheel. From my experience, it's gonna seem like all the bubbles are gone, but then you'll finally get some more.

the master cylinder WAS my problem! I forgot to bench bleed the m.c., but i bled it first while installed on the car, then the rr wheel, lf, lr, and rf. i could tell the pedal was getting stiffer, which was a good feeling. But when i took it for a test drive, it definitely helped me stop. the pedal travel was just a still a little too far, which i'm assuming there is still air in the system. But at least i found my problem.
