did you pump the pedal all the way while bleeding? that may have damaged the seals in the MC.

what kind of lube did you use for reassembly? brake components that touch brake fluid need a hygroscopic lube.

your brake pistons may also be shot. look for fluid leaking inside the boots of the drum pistons or outside of the caliper pistons.
