clutch bleeding is taking a while to work
I have a 2006 c6 corvette with about 70,000 miles on it. I've just done a replacement on the OEM clutch, pilot bearing, throwout bearing, slave cylinder, and master cylinder. Unfortunately, I'm having issues with bleeding my clutch. idk if im doing something wrong or what, but it seems like the clutch is sticking to the floor, or at least when i pump the clutch im only building up just a little pressure, maybe an inch and a half off the floor. Any suggestions?

Did you pre bleed-the slave and master before installing and then connecting the middle coupling, or did you install them dry.
If dry, then you need to get to the remote bleed on the top of the slave mounted to the torque tube to open and tube it, and power bleed from the reserve tank to get the air out of the lines now.
