No clutch pressure after ZO6 install

No clutch pressure after ZO6 install I was having all kinds of problems with my clutch and finally got GM to pay for a ZO6 install. They installed the new ZO6 clucth disc, Flywheel, Pressure Plate, Master and Slave cylinder. I don't know if the master cylinder has changed or not from 00 to 01 but they went ahead and replaced that anyway. So pretty much everything- anything else that might have been needed?
Well, I got the car back today and the first thing I notice is that I have virtually no clutch pedal pressure. I can easily press the pedal to the floor with my index finger. Is there anything I can do to get a little bit of pressure back? I can barely feel the clutch engage. This might be normal. I wouldn't know since I've been fighting the pedal with my bodyweight for the past six months. It just seems that my shifting is sloppy now because I can't confirm what point to release the clutch.
My next problem is pretty big. The shifter wants to stay in the first and second gear row. Normally, the third and fourth gear row would be its residing position. It is still springy pushing over from the middle row to the right row (fifth and sixth gear.) When shifting out of second I keep putting it back in first gear instead of third. Any advice? TIA.

Re: No clutch pressure after ZO6 install Does your clutch slip under hi- loads? As for shifter is it stock? Either way it should'nt stay in the 1&2 gate for self center. Take it back talk to service manager & tell him you don't want the same bonehead working on your car or else!! <img border="0" alt="[guns]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[fight]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_punch.gif" />
