OK Update: this is really strange but the clutch works now... I bled it last week for the last time and it didnt seem like it worked... i went out today and noticed... the car goes into gear!!! but if i push the pedal all the way down it wont go into gear. I have to release the pedal about a half inch and it works fine... except reverse grinds bad... but if i start the car already in reverse with the clutch in... its fine, i can engage and disengage the clutch all i want... just wont go in running. I noticed... the guy at the transmission shop who i had look at the car, cut/welded/extended the CMC pushrod about an inch.... he didnt even tell me he did it ...that has to be my problem... not sure about the reverse problem tho. what do you think?

reverse grinds because it doesn't have a syncro ring trying to mesh the gears together while they are spinning. the forward gears don't grind because the syncro ring is preventing the gear from moving into the other gear since it hasn't synchronized with it. if i leave a stick shift in neutral with the clutch out, i will put it in any forward gear before i put it in reverse. this action stops the gears from spinning immediately so reverse won't grind.

if the rod is longer than it's supposed to be, then you'd have either lack of engagement, or slipping. maybe the master cylinder is bad.

well fixed the problem, everything works perfect now. I just epoxied a little stopper under the carpet so the pedal doesnt go all the way down, it now goes into gear perfectly and reverse doenst grind at all!! Thanks to everyone this painful swap is officially done! Thank You! Mods feel free to delete!

Why didn't you swap the slave/master unit? Fairly easy to do.

the CMC/slave are brand new, i didnt use the 5 speed firewall plate and the pedal was short of travel, so the CMC pushrod was extended....it was a little too long but the stopper works perfectly...

You do know that there's a little plastic like cap on the end of the slave (rod part that goes into the trans) and it would probably take up that "extra" space causing all your problems?
