Default Stuck in Reverse/ Soft Pedal

Since I have put my new spec 3 clutch and aluminum flywheel in, its had trouble going into reverse. Today as i was backing out of my driveway, my car got stuck in gear in reverse. Like i had the clutch all the way pushe in and it was half way engaged and woouldnt come out of gear untill i shut the car off. Then the clutch pedal got real soft and wouldnt return. Any have any ideas what this might be? We also did the drill mod in the line but we did clean the line out before reinstallation.

once my brother kinda force shifted to 4th, we came back he kept it in reverse and it wouldn't come out engine off or on, we pushed the car and the it came out.

although your problem seems to be the master cylinder itself.
if it's the original then its time to get yourself a tick.
if it's a tick then you better fix your adjustment.
check your lines if they got disconnected & leaks.

I replaced it with the tick master. Works like a charm now.
