I take it when you did the clutch the flywheel was machined , new pressure plate ,spigot bearing were all done etc.

Yeh we hit it with a wizzer and put a full clutch kit in then we noticed the slave was almost gone and had to fully adjust it out to get any clutch so we replaced that to

Do you think you may have bent the pressure plate fingers on the reinstall .Is possible if doing a refit from underneath but not common . Maybe try a bleed again I bleed mine by putting a soft hose on the bleeder and zip it up high with the bleed screw open and give it a good flush through ,makes it a one man operation with good results .
