If it is hard to get into first it sounds like the clutch is not disengaging fully. I'd re-bleed it first.

How do you swap out a clutch and not install a remote bleeder???

the car is still getting harder and harder to get into first gear.

should I take it back to the shop? or is it possible they didn't re-align the shifter correctly?

When you say it's hard to get into first... are you talking about sitting still after backing out of the garage? Coming to a stop light or stop sign? Going around a corner and just shifting down?

All of the above about 60% of the time it's tough to get into first and sometimes pops out if I don't hold it

Could be synchro... I have read where others having this issue put in a C6 Z06 shifter and the problem went away... maybe just because when they installed it they adjusted the alignment? Might be worth a try and it's a nice upgrade
