Default 94 del sol clutch feels like it snags ocassionally

i recently installed a competition stage4 6 puck clutch and a 12 flywheel in my 94 honda del soh 1.6 sohc. we'll occasionally when just cruising around " the clutch normally engages towards the top " and ocassionally is engages closer to the flow and feels like i snag's. im aware that 6 pucks are normally snaggy any way. but what would cause it to engage and disengage in different places.

i check the clutch master cylinder on the inside of the cab for moisture and it was bone dry. so its not leaking to my knowledge.

if anyone has any idea it would be extremely helpful. since its my daily

we'll not to sound curd but thats probably because it was a cheap ebay special. not a legitimate clutch company. i know its not the clutch cause it if it was it would have done it right from the beginning. not just start happening. 1000 miles after the break in.

but just outta curiosity did it engage in different locations when u release the clutch pedal.

because thats actually the problem im having. its not the clutch so im thinking its slave or master or both.

i heard that when upgrading to a heavier clutch the original stock slave and master cant hold the pressure of the heavier clutch

i ran the ebay clutch for a year. bought the car with it in their from who knows when. it was fine. and then it started to act weird. at a stop it would engage far quicker and most times engage normal but rarely it would just engage when i barely let go of the clutch . but it was worn down pretty good when i took it out. it was by no means slipping took a 100 shot of nitrous and held fine. i did try to bleed the clutch but didnt work.

id start by changing the slave and master though. junkayrd parts 50 bucks

that sounds pretty close to the same situation im having, my clutch maybe has 4,000 miles on it if that . when u replaced your master and slave cylinders, did it fix the problem
