There used to be a sticky thread around here about it, written by Jaberwaki. You should be able to find it with a search.

I've finally fixed this and it was by doing the following:

1) 01 slave (bled clutch) - didn't fix it
2) Ram Adjustable Master Cylinder (set to stock length) and drill mod - didn't fix it
3) Bench bled - didn't fix it
4) Bled whole thing again - didn't fix it
5) Adjusted Master Cylinder to be a little less than a 1/4 inch closer than stock to the engine (shorter). - made it worse
6) Adjusted Master Cylinder to be about 1/8 inch closer than stock to the rear of the car (longer). FIXED IT FINALLY

*the key for me was the Adjustable Master Cylinder and making it a little bit longer than stock. Note I still have my stock clutch.
