First are you sure that the brakes are the fitted the correct way. i.e nipple at the top. You will be supprised how often people do this.
Second, because the corsa master cylinder was not designed to opperate V6 brakes, there is a fair bit of pedal travel before the brakes opperate. Even when they are correctly bled.
This is not a bad thing, but just something you will have to live with.

There is a lot of travel, but the brakes should be solid if bled correctly.
