Default Clutch issue

So I recently put a different trans in my '85 with a used bellhousing.
And now my clutch goes straight down with no pressure until about 1-2" above the floor where I start to get pressure.
Now I obviously thought it was just not bled correctly. So I bled it. 7 times. Then I thought it was the master so I changed that. Twice (warrenty). And changed the slave. And throwout bearing. And last but certainly not least, the clutch hydraulic line.
This week I started thinking maybe its the pedal. It used to be an automatic, so maybe when I installed the pedals I misalligned the pedal and master...
Wouldn't make any sense. I was reaching. (Also I looked and the rod is going all the way in the master)

So here it is. I believe the my CLUTCH FORK is bad. Anyone else agree?
