You might need a longer slave cylinder rod.

By 'not getting enough throw on the release arm', do you mean you've already loosened the nut up behind the clutch pedal and screwed the stud out a bit? When I installed my 2900, my clutch wouldn't disengage either. To replace the clutch, slave, and master cylinders, you would have had to open the hydraulic line up. If any air got in there (which it would have), you will need to bleed the system several times to purge it all out. Air in the system can be compressed, lessening your mechanical advantage when you push the clutch in. Bleed the system first, and then try lengthening the rod behind the clutch pedal if that doesn't work.

I have my pivot ball shimmed about a 1/16". helped mine anyway

Sounds like a worn pivot ball to me. Don't shim it, if you're going to pull the tranny anyways no sense in bandaiding a $9 fix by putting in a new pivot ball.
