Simalar thing happened to me. I went to shift from 1-2 and the clutch popped to the floor and I couldn't get it to come back out and the car died. I got it to pop back out but it wouldn't go back in. Turned out to be a busted throwout bearing.

If you need any help, let me know, I've replaced everything transmission related on LTx cars.

yea that be great man....if you have some istall instructions it be vary helpful. . .when your throwout bearing goes out is that all you have to replace or preaty much redo the whole clutch???

The t/o bearing is pinned to the pressure plate. It that is the culprit, you should be able to get a new one and replace it without having to replace the clutch. You'll know if its your t/o bearing once you drop your tranny.

I'm trying to find the write-up that I used a long time ago.
This one will help for now, it's for a LS1 T56, but a lot of the steps are similar.
