I'm having a bit of trouble with my Talon since the new ACT 2600 clutch install. Mind you, I'm using the old slave cylinder, the stock hydraulic lines, original master cylinder, and original clutch linkage. The only things that I've tried to change is the extended slave cylinder rod and washer under the pivot ball fix which are on the car now. The new rod absolutely makes no difference from the stock one. The clutch pedal only moves about 50% of the full throw it should have. The car has about 145k on it if that tells you about how old the part are.
What it comes down to is, what should I try first? The clutch pedal assembly feels like it's got some play in it as the first half inch or so does nothing to disengage the clutch. I'm wondering if I have to, and I hope to god I don't, take the linkage apart and weld it. Tell me what you think.

I used the valvoline BF with good results. It shouldn't matter which rod you use to bleed with. I've bled with the longer rod before.
