2001 Mazda B3000 mileage: 96,000. I have a new engine, complete new pads, wheel cylinders, master cylinder, and I can't get a pedal, tried everything! My brakes don't work.

Sounds like you have air in the brake system. Try removing the master cylinder, "bench bleeding" it and then reinstall it and bleed the entire system. If the low pedal still persists, try replacing the rear anti-lock brake valve.

Did you have this problem before doing the brake work?
Were any calipers removed or replaced?
