Default Clutch problem, need help fast. pleaseee

Not to long ago, I wasnt even driving hard but just pumping the clutch very fast, while in neutral. Then after a few of those it just stayed stayed down and the only tension in it was made by the spring at the pedal. the clutch is now ingaged and no dealer wants to take it for a month because I didnt buy it from them. I even called H&B chevelle and told them i have an intake, they said "We dont wanna Have anything to do with modded cars". Im gonna fix it myself! What do you think is wrong, what should I change first????
Thanks so much

Whats wrong is the dealer. If all you have is an intake, go take somewhere else and they'll fix it. That's BS.

I believe I recognize the poster's writing style from previous a screen name. But I don't want to start out "messing with people"' as david.k liked to do. Sound familiar, C6V3tt3?

With that said...Here goes.

Please provide a detailed description of your symptoms.

Can you start the car?

Can you put the shifter in gear?

What happens when you release the clutch?

Do you have the experience and equipment to drop the drive train and dig in to a clutch?
