Fidanza Flywheel and Clutchnasters Stage 4 Engagement Issues...

So I have bled and bled and vacuum bled my clutch. In order for me to get my clutch to disengage completely so it will go into gear with ease I have to mash the clutch pedal into floor, not just press it. So my question is....should I get an adjustable clutch rod, get a new master cylinder(have read that this fixes some peoples issue like this), drive the **** out of it and hope it gets better, or bleed the **** out of it some more? The clutch is about twice as stiff as stock like its supposed to be the whole way down, not spongy at all.

im thinking everything wasnt lined up properly when you put it back together or wrong clutch thickness.

Lined up properly? Its impossible to line up incorrectly and have everything bolt up without any gaps between the bellhousing and engine block, but thanks for the input. I did seat the clutch in the new flywheel by slipping it some and it helped a little bit. When I double clutch it slides ride into gear smooth as butter so thats what makes me think my clutch rod isn't long enough.
