Wont go into gear after wot.

I recently had a Clutchmmasters stage 3 installed, in the first 100 miles of driving on the new clitch after long-ish drives 20 miles or so, when i would downshift from being in the same gear for a while like i was driving on the highway it wouldnt go into gear.. i would have to force it in.. or wait til it finally goes in. Now i have about 400 miles on the cliutch and i did my first wot pull since it was on. 3rd, 60mph. when i go to shift in 4th it wont go, like its blocked off i have to wait for it to go in or keep playing with it.. I still have to bleed it but i just havent had the time to been busy with school and work.. Could this be why thats happening?

Clutch is dragging a bit.

Sounds like you need to bleed the clutch more. Vac bleeding mine never got it all out and I had the same issues. I had to bleed mine manually from the bleeder on the top of the clutch housing a few times to get all the air out.

Put a hose onto the fitting into a part filled jar of clean DOT 3 fluid to keep air from backing into the system.
Open bleeder, depress pedal to the floor, close bleeder, raise pedal, repeat until no more air comes out. It's easier with a second person.

If you aren't leaking fluid under the car, the slave cyl is most likely fine.

Needs bleeding or has a leak, check the o-rings on teh clutch pipe if you still have problems
