whatever you determine the problem to be, if you have to remove the tranny I would highly recommend installing an extension line on the slave so when you bleed the it you can actually see what it is you are doing and don't fill the bell with clutch fluid. The GM design flat out sucks. Here is a pic of what is on my car.
Really pretty simple, its a metric 10x1.5 to #4 adapter with a copper washer threaded in to the slave and cranked tight (no good if it leaks), a 30" premade #4 braided brake line, to an adapter fitting to accepte the bleeder valve. and it works like a charm. No lost sockets, no fluid in the bell, no guess if you got a good fluid stream....total cost $38 and I got all the parts from Lawrence Engineering (roundy round race shop) in Trenton.
If you don't trust the copper washer there is a guy on LS1 Tech selling a similar kit with an A/N adapter fitting at the slave so no need for the copper washer that is abit fancier (has a solo bleeder on the end and a mounting tab, etc) for $75 I think, nice piece also.
If the tranny is coming out, do your self the favor and put an extension on....
