Icon6 Clutch?? Slave?? Master??? I cant figure this out. Any suggestions

OK, I got a 92 Honda Accord 5 spd

Bought it about two months ago and ever since it grinded a small bit going into third, unless you shift very gently it would go in no problem.... About a month after having the car I was driving and couldnt get it into any gear, so I pumped the clutch a bunch of times an it worked an drove home.. Next day I couldnt get it out of gear when I tried starting it so I checked fluids and the MC reservoir was empty so i filled it and drove for another couple weeks... Acted up a lil so I topped it off and drove fine... Finally the transmission got stuck in 3rd gear an would only drive in 3rd a couple weeks ago and Im pretty sure it broke off in third so I got a transmission at the junk yard out of a totaled accord from the rear end hoping that the tranny is good...

Me an a couple buddies of mine that are pretty good with cars did the tranny swap, filled fluids, bleed hydraulic system... Drove the car out the garage and the shifting worked in all gears with no grinding or problems BUT ten minutes later it started seeming like the clutch is slipping or not in gear when I pressed the gas... Ill press the gas and as long as I feather it it will drive fine in all gears but if Im in gear and step on it the RPMs go up but the car doesnt speed up, also, it is starting to get very hard to shift into gears at times...

So I did a bunch of research on here and read to bleed it over and over and over, and so I did.. Now its not only seeming like its slipping when its in gears when you gas it, it also shakes horribly when Im taking off in each gear when the clutch is almost all the way out

Any suggestions would be appreciated????

This is the same symptom you get when the clutch master pushrod is out of adjustment.
