Default Brakes

Just changed the front brakes from 2 pots to bigger Wilwood 4 pots
Can't seem to bleed them through, have used a presure bleeder, got a good pedal but almost at the floor
Can only think it's the master cylinder being a different size from 2 to 4 pots is this right?
Car is a 97 tommi kiyara import
Cheers

silly question but are the bleed nipples at the top of the caliper??
seen this quite a number of times when people fit new brakes and they fit them upside down so the nipple points to the floor!!

Believe this or not i had a mate who spent over £500 trying to solve a problem with a clutch slave cylinder due to having the nipple underneath. Once on top it was fine
