Default Guys major clutch/hydraulics problems....

Alright so about 2400 miles ago i was in need of a new clutch and a transmission rebuild. I take it to lee Myles they put in the Ram 402/6130 with the Adjustable master cylinder. The car drove great and nothing was wrong until early one morning i was driving to an intersection and stopped.

I push the clutch in and move it to first gear. It doesn't budege. So I try all the other gears but it doesn't go. I get it towed and take it back to Lee Myles on monday. They figure its the slave and the pilot bearing. They replace it still they say its better but not good enough, yet still has peddle pressure. After telling them that its an ADJUSTABLE master they fool around with it and call me. They say the noticed that fluid was shooting out when they touched or moved the rubber boot on the outside. Lee Myles says its either the master or the flywheel. I called McLeod and CNC and they also confirm that the master shouldn't be doing that. As of now im in the process of sending the master to be fixed or replaced i forget. How could the master be bad while still maintaining peddle pressure? Could the flywheel possibly be at fault?

i 'heard' mcleod had some bad master cylinders..
that may relate.

either way if the master is ejecting fluid then its definitely no good
