Default Clutch problem.. need help asap

My clutch is slipping like no other. There is only 2000 miles on my motor/clutch. i just had the motor totally built for turbo and put it in. the clutch is an action 2md pressure plate with a ACT 6 puck disc. I do have pressure in my pedal so I know thats not the problem but when i try and drive it or give it gas or anything it wont grab at all. it just slips and the RPM revs like as if it were in neutral almost. the car will move but very slowly.

i am not sure if it is the flywheel or the disc. i dont think its the disc because its a brand new disc and there is like no way it could of gone out after 2k miles. the flywheel i am using is a fydanza 7.4lb flywheel and i just had it resurfaced i didnt know i was suposed to buy a new insert and have that put in instead of getting it resurfaced. so that might be the problem but i have no clue. any ideas as to what it is. thanks

ryan

Did you check the slave cylinder to see if it fully returns? I've seen quite a few of them hang up.

i just went and drove my car again to see if anything else happened with the problem. i noticed that the clutch doesn slip that much at all anymore but i have lost a lot of pressure in the pedal.

what could be happening here?
