C5s up front, LS1 MC, PBRs out back.. Can't lock em up!

Alright. Soooo...

I got C5 calipers and AC delco cross drilled rotors up front with ceramic pads and braided hoses up front. I have a master cylinder from an LS1. I have stock PBRs out back with generic pads and rubber hoses.

I tried to lock the brakes up today and it won't do it. The pedal only goes so far and gets rock hard.

I changed the fluid not to long ago.

So whats up???
