    Engine Swap

    blew my motor got a new one decided to pull the tranny and replace the clutch everything's aligned it was the biggest hassle getting it back together but I managed now the problem is , the first time I did this I didn't touch the clutch took the tranny apart to make sure everything was good well than put it back together again was a pain but put it together dropped the motor in bleed the line and the clutch pedal wont depress I have pressure I feel it but it wont depress its rock hard and it literally bent my clutch pedal my problem is im thinking its my transmission and me taking it apart but I put every single thing back together the same way it came out now im stuck with wth is going on any help would be appreciated the second time I did the tranny was under the car it wouldn't go on so I pulled the motor re did it outside again a pain..?

    I don't know what you did wrong, but there is something wrong inside the bell housing. The transmission is going to have to come out.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

          Confused

          1. Can you pinpoint what exactly is the problem?

          2. Was the correct clutch alignment tool used?

          3. Is the clutch kit the same as what came out?

          4. Is the slave good? Good slaves do not eject piston into the bell house

            clutch repaired , mechanic fixed it , now new problem that I had before but its odd af, my starter wont spin the motor it ticks once , I got 2 starter it does it to both .. and both motors were running so I doubt both starters went , I put the wires back according to the outputs like for the starter there's a very small 8mm socket spot put the 1 wire that fits in it in the whole , the red and black wire< from the battery connected and the one on the bottom , also the alternator wires there's 2 big one and small one connected im getting a tick. that's all

            1: both starters checked out good , bench tested them so ? what could it be after work ill put everything together but I don't want to have to pull everything back out
