Default Slight third gear grind

Had a hard time shifting with grinding to get 3rd to catch. The higher the RPM's the harder is is.

So I decided to install a new slave cylinder and master clutch cylinder. The car shifts alot better now and my master clutch cylinder was definately f'ed up from the looks of the seal. So this morning I decided to do a hard pull and almost redlined from 2nd to 3rd and it slightly grinded. Before it wouldn't even engadge so I know I'm getting somewhere.

I bleed all the lines properly and have no bubbles in the hydraulic lines including getting a hydraulic oil shampoo wash

I'm wondering what I should look at next? Where do I go from here?

Edit: It's a B16 transmission by the way with a stock clutch.

Pull the trans and inspect the 3/4 sleeve set. Damage is already done from the MC and/or SC failing.
