Its probably not the master cylinder itself. I had a similar issue with my act clutch. the steel plate that holds the master cylinder in place was broken. It has 2 tabs that are only about 1/16" thick and they tend to bend and break when you put a heavier clutch in. Id check those tabs and see how they look. That is if your master cylinder doesnt look broken
Are you turning it a 3/4 turn when instqlling it?

The plate is available at crate engine depot if you plan to do it yourself. You have to pull out the entire dash to access it though. Theres a thread somewhere on here of a quick fix, but i dont remember what it was. If i had this issue again, i would probably rig something up to work,

Goto crate engine depot website, look for cobalt trans stuff.
It's there.
How in the world did you go from clutch master cylinder broke in half to needing a new firewall plate?
For the record the clutch master cylinder that oreilly's sells is STEEL. Yes you read right, it's made from metal.
EDIT: *The one for the LNF is metal and I presume that all Cobalts take the same one.
