Default Clutch weird after beating on it.

I've realized that with my car, when I run it hard (like, to redline) and bang gears, the clutch friction point gets lower. After I stop and let it idle for a while it goes back to normal. I've been told that's it's the fluid since I just bought the car a week ago and the fluid was a little low and dark.

I was wondering where the slave cylinder is located on the LS1 T56 so I can bleed it.

The fluid has an effect, but it may be more than that. The stock clutch/PP has its limits too. Change the fluid and you'll know.
