How long were you letting it crank for? It takes a while but I wouldn't just let it crank for minutes at a time.

First off double check all the hard fuel lines, a slightly loose nut will cause no start.

I think the fuel bleed procedure only bleeds the low pressure system, so the fuel rail and hard lines still need to be purged through cranking. The trick I read was to loosen the hard line on cyl 1 and have someone crank until you get diesel coming out, then tighten it up and you're almost fully bled.
