Default Clutch WILL NOT disengage at all!!

Ok, my car is having some clutch issues. It is a 98 ls1 car. The clutch will not disengage at all. The clutch is a mixed/twin disc mcleod type of thing that we cant really figure out exactly what it is. (I bought the car this way). The clutch was working excellent with no problems, I pulled it off the old engine, put it on the new engine, put a new slave in, put the trans back on and now it will not disengage AT ALL.

The trans has been off a couple more times now and there are still issues. The clutch was taken off again, re-torqued everything, put a shim in, bled the entire system, adjusted the master fully, and the problem still persists! Any help would be great! Thanks!

Thanks I appreciate it. I think the guy that is doing the work on the car has been speaking with you guys about it, but I am just concerned that it is not a complete Mcloed clutch it is mixed and matched parts.

The issues were fixed. The clutch was not shimmed properly, thanks everyone.
