Default help with my T-56

Ok here is the deal. Something if very wrong with my trans. I loose all pressure in my clutch pedal when driving hard, then it will go back to normal after a few seconds later. I have put in a new master and bleed the system a couple times. Ex. I took off hard in first, shifted to 2nd and then the pedal was stuck to the floor, but popped back up when i got off it. Anyone know what this might be?

It means your hydraulic fluid is boiling. You can try flushing the fluid. There's a nice writeup about this problem in a sticky up top:

I had this exact same problem when my stock clutch was beat and slipping. I had to put in a new clutch to fix it.
