Default Weird clutch problem, info would be great.

Hey all, I am tryin to work out the bugs of my clutch. Here is the run down. Built B18C1, USDM Type R trans, Stage 3 six puck, spooon flywheel. The peddle will was feelings mushy and only releasing half way, so i bled the clutch today. Shifts fine at low rpm/throttle. High rpm especially in first is strange. If I take the engine up to 7k ish and go to hit the clutch to change gears nothing happens and the clutch doesnt come back up from the floor for a few seconds and doesnt even depress (engine still revs as if i revved it way up then just let of the gas and did nothing else)
So I replaced the clutch pedal assy today and everything is a lot better. Except it still does the first gear thing. So I am guess now either, slave cylinder, master cylinder for the cluth or the clutch pressure plate (hoping it is not this) clutch has about 8k on it.
Any info would be appreciated. Thanks for reading my long rant.

You might want to bleed it again. Usually if the clutch pedal goes down to the floor and doesn't come back up, it's the slave cylinder.
