Hey guys, I'm in the middle of a 2nd gen 3sgte swap. I installed the stage 4 competition clutch with my factory s54 tranny. I'm am not done with the swap yet, but the motor is in. When I push down on the clutch pedal it just drops right to the ground. It won't spring back. Did I do something wrong? WHat can I do to solve this issue? And when I look at the clutch cylinder it doesn't move.

its not a funny thing to do. its pretty hard to do. If you still have a smushy pedal then you didnt get the air out. A trick we tried was when you bleed it make sure that if its going to suck back in that its sucking in fluid, not air. Like bleeding break lines. When you open the valve to release air, after the air releases its going to allow air to flow back in, if you rig a line to a clean cup or the bottle itself, when it sucks back in it will only suck back in fluid. this is make it a lot easier and will help you make sure that you are getting all the air out.
