just put the motor and trans back in the car had to replace the hydraulic clutch line the clutch and master and slave and throw out bearing have around 1500 miles on them and the car was going into gear before the new motor just fine goes into the gears when the car is off fine so the clutch is not compressing enough any ideas why this would be happening ? my only choice to pull the tranny out ?

If everything is the same as before except the hydraulic line was replaced...then either that is the problem, you bent the disc in installation or you have air in the system. Are you sure it's bled completely?

my brother dropped the disk installing it this time but it looked ok is there any way to tell if all the air is out the line is brand new and when i bleed it im not getting any air only fluid when i bleed it

also everything was not used for 2 years if that matters

does the pedal feel "spongy"?...if so you still have air in the system.

"your brother dropped he disc"....maybe someone from a clutch co. could advise if damage is possible.

Given the hydraulic line swap...I would look closer to the bleeding and confirm no air is still in the system.

how much bleeding do i need to do to safly say there is no air ? the pedal does feel alittle spongy

If the disc was dropped then it could very well be bent and the reason it isn't disengaging I'm afraid.
