Default Question on Clutch Pedal

I am having trouble with my clutch pedal. When I am normal driving and press the pedal in, the pedal will stick about half way. When that happens I have to use my foot and help the pedal back up. I noticed when the pedal is stuck I cant get the shifter out of gear. It doesnt do it all the time and it just started when I swapped shifters. This is my first M6. The fluid does look dark in the Master Cylinder. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Start by bleeding the hydraulics thoroughly, once you've done that let us know if the behavior changes. More than likely it'll help/solve the issue. If it doesn't then you're looking at a potential mechanical issue, IE the clutch.

Depends on what kind of power you're making and what you want.
Ls7 clutch is great for the price. Good pedal feel and holds a good #.
If you're making a whole lot, look into a twin disc.
Personally I have a monster stage 3 in my car.
No complaints. Pedal feel isn't bad for traffic.
