Changed clutch, won't start.
I hope this is in the right spot.. I had my clutch and flywheel replaced, since then nightmares ensued. Clutch petal sank to floor after install. Bled the system, no luck.. Replaced slave and master cylinder hoping that would fix it. Pedal is now almost back to its normal after the install and a proper bleed but the engine won't turn on, sounds like it wants to when i turn key. Do you guys think this is an aftermarket clutch alignment issue? Is there anything else i can try before dropping the trans again?

If you had it replaced and didn't do the work yourself you need to take it back to the place that worked on it and have them fix every single issue you're having now that you didn't have before they worked on it. To return a car that won't even start to you boggles my mind and why in the world would you accept the car in that condition?
If a friend did it or something like that I'd still hold them responsible for the issues you're now having. It's total BS in my mind that whoever worked on it would give it back to you in that condition........

The flywheel has an alignment dowel that you probably didn't get lined up when installing the flywheel. Some engines the dowel sticks out quite a bit but mine the dowel was recessed and you could have installed the flywheel any which way you wanted. It will NOT start (or it will run HORRIBLY if it does) if you don't have the flywheel installed properly.
