Default A little concern on possible hydraulics

BUddy of mine has a 2000 Z car... just put a ls6 clutch in the car, new slave, and pilot bearing, bled the **** out of clutch and the car actually shifts worse than what it did, kind of stiff and hard to get in gear... def at wot does not want to slide in....

Car is just a bolt on car
1st gear with clutch all the way in reving it up to 4500 the car wants to role a little.... (if that helps any)

Im just wanting to know were the next step should be.... Ive never heard of having to shim a ls6 clutch, so im sure thats out of the picture!!

Maybey drill mod, or new master?????

Thanks Chris!

Is the clutch new? I assume that it is. Is the flywheel new as well? If not and it was machined more than needed or not machined properly this could affect clutch release. Additionally, the stock LS6 clutch uses a self-adjusting type pressure-plate and if the SAC mechanism has missadjusted this can affect release.

If you put your foot on the pedal, pressing it to the floor, does the car eventually begin to creep forward?
