My clutch has about 1in of travel that actually does anything.. It has a stage 2 act clutch and flywheel... Ive chaged the slave cylinder and ajjusted the pedal all the way out... Still the same result and now that i chaged the slave cylinder and bled everything it wont go into reverse while running... Ive seen other threads on here about the same thing but with no real resolution to the problem. Any help would be appreciated....

Did you check out Jacks Transmissions dsm clutch adjustment video on youtube? That was very helpful for me.
 
I was having nearly the same problem. Found of the master was leaking from the inside. May want to check that.
 
I had the same problem last week. Pulled out the master cylinder to find that the gold bracket which connects to the clutch pedal was bent on the threads. check to make sure it is threaded properly. (You can do this by loosening the lock nut and seeing if the gold bracket can thread freely)
 
The tranny itself feels awesome and the rod is not bent, I will thread it back in a bit to see if it is blocking anything.. I don't know if this has anything to do with it but it is a 2g with a 6 bolt swap... I think its the length of the adjustment rod... Thanks for the input guys...

I went ahead and bought the extended one and readjusted it at the pedal... after messing with it and messing with it I have some pedal now and it is drivable... I will let you guys know how much more pedal I get from the extended plunger rod...
