Default clutch issues

2006 z06



Ok pulled motor out couple months ago to fix. Never unhooked anything from master cylinder or slave cylinder.

Got everything back in car and running great, but the clutch won't disengage. I tried to bleed the clutch couple times and seem to not have any air.
No leaks from slave cylinder, and mast seems to build pressure up as fluid shoots out when opening my speed bleeder.

Any input would be great, or maybe I'm not bleeding it right idk.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Brand and friction material type.
The reason i am asking is, on occasion over the years I have seen under certain conditions the clutch disk sticking to the flywheel.

Hold clutch to floor and keep bumping the starter. She will break loose.
