Question Clutch engagement problems.

I bought a really nice '99 GSX from a guy late August. It's got a ACT 2600 with a Fidanza flywheel. The respectable guy said he changed the master and slave cylinders.

The Problem: Either i engage right off the floor and grind going into gears or i engage way off the floor and have clutch slippage under acceleration. I checked out the vfaq and i did ajust the rod. I turned it out maybe a 1/4 turn or so. It don't take much! It's good then, it'll engage about 1"+ off the floor, about where it should be. By the way i DID tighten the nut. You drive it around for a little while and then she engages WAY off the floor and slips. So i turn the rod in VERY slightly 1/8 turn or so(Tighten the nut) and then it's good for a little while until she's starts engaging off the floor again. I'm really frustrated at it. I'm chasing the problem but can't catch it.

I crawled under the dash and i see no leaks by the master cylinder rod area.

Can somebody give me some suggestions on what the heck to try.

BTW- A buddy and i tried bleeding the clutch on 2 separate occasions with no results.

Thanks!!!
