Question: brakes will not bleed

You are describing 2 problems. Could you please clarify:
Brakes will not bleed- is there pressure in the peddle? Did you open a bleeder valve at a wheel? Do the brakes work at all? What is the level of the master cylinder reservoir? I need more information as to your experience so far with this project.
No brake peddle with motor running- does this mean the peddle goes all the way to the floor? Do the brakes engage? If the engine is off do you have peddle pressure? Do the brakes engage?
