Clutch is on the floor, was able to pump enough to disengauge so its hydralics but looking for replacement is not as easy as I thought. STM no longer has masters and I am a bit weary of "cheaper" ones out there. Would love a reccomdation on slave/ master set options.

Thanks
 
IMO, aftermarket clutch cylinders are kind of gambling, and most of time you would lose. You probably would keep replacing it often.
My recommendation is, if the cylinders you have now are OEM, inspect the cylinder wall condition and if you see no abnormal wear, it would be better to look for OEM cylinder kit (Repair kit) and rebuild it by yourself. That would be much cheaper than complete OEM cylinders and more reliable than aftermarket cylinders. I think it's still available.

Uuuuuggggggghhhhh. I’m right there with you. If anyone has any leads on a new OEM master or a link to a good quality rebuild kit I would love the info.

If anyone has other suggestions I’m open. I thought I was doing myself a favor putting new hydraulics in when I did my M/T swap. I used exedy parts which I have know to be a reputable brand in other applications. I can not get the clutch to fully disengage and I’m 100% I have gotten every bit of air out with my pressure bleeder. I finally got it to disengage just off the floor by fabricating a longer slave pushrod, but I would like get back to OEM. I’m pretty sure I have the OEM master and slave somewhere, but they came off a totaled scrap car in unknown driving condition hence me thinking a rebuild is appropriate.
 
Also for what it's worth, LUK was the OEM supplier. I don't see an issue buying one of those or the Exedy or the Sachs master cylinders. But if you really wanna fork over the money->
