Non shifting gt

I have an 06 mustang gt. I just replaced the engine and clutch. I did the recommend break in for both. A day or two afterwards I noticed that it was getting harder and harder to get my car in 1st with it running and also hard to shift into second as well. Now I have to start the car in gear and with the clutch peddle depressed it tries to pull forward. I drove 1500 mile before any of this started and havent even been able to get into like I want. Also if I am driving and go over 2500 rpm I cant get it out of what ever h
Gear I'm in. Please help

Possible there is air in the line to the clutch slave cylinder...

Here is a post on allfordmustangs with instructions (and a pdf how-to) to bleed the clutch. Try this.

Or you can buy one for like $20 at autozone. It's called a mityvac (i think autozone sells it in a brake testing/bleeding kit). It's just a little hand-operated pump. And then go to lowes or home depot or your favorite hardware store and get a rubber bath tub stopper. poke a hole in it and one of the mityvac's attachments will stick in that hole and you then plug the brake fluid resevior with it, and pump the vacuum you need.
