Wow, that was kinda hard to read...
But from the gist of it, it seems you arent feeling any resistance when you press the clutch in, correct? Sounds like something is wrong with the fork/throwout bearing on the inside of the tranny case. You either installed it wrong or something is not in place correctly.
I dont see how you can incorrectly install the clutch/pressure plate, assuming the input shaft fit into the clutch smooth - that's about all there is to it. FYI, it's the pressure plate that give you that resistance in the clutch pedal. So if you're not feeling any stiffness in your clutch pedal, the fork/throwout bearing is not doing it's job. Or there is too much slack with the cable. Either way, sounds like you need to retrace your steps and maybe even remove the tranny again to see what you did wrong.
