South Bend Problems?????

After I installed the new SBC OFE the clutch pedal sticks to the floor intermittely, I have put about 30miles on it, Its seems hard to get the trans into reverse. Also the pedal feel is alot different, is this normal??? At first the pedal is hard and about half way down the pedal eaisly goes down. Shifting is fine no problems. IS THIS NORMAL???

Mine did that a few months ago. It just stayed on the floor. I pumped it a few times and haven't had a problem since. I think it's just b/c it's new. Try pumping it a few times every once in a while.

It says on Southbends Website that the feel will be different and that if you have problems with the pedal sticking on the floor to remove the helper spring on the clutch pedal.

You can check it out yourself.
