lt1 style clutch slave

Ok, i ruled out that my clutch slave was so pressurized that i couldn't get it to bolt on. I tried everyway to get it on, so i unfortunately had to take the hydraulic line off then put it back on. So now I had 2 bleed the line, I read on one of the post to aim the rod down and pump the slave by hand since I dont have a bleeder valve, so I did that, and refilled the reservior, and pumped it some more. I bolted the slave on and check to see if it worked and it didn't, so now I don't know what else to do with this whole bleeding thing.

i've decided to just buy a new pre-bled slave since i cracked one of the bolt holes, so im just gonna take the safe route and get a new one.
