Strange Clutch MC/SC Problems

This problem all started when my clutch master cylinder started leaking. I fixed that by rebuilding it. New cylinder, springs, seals, etc. That fixed the leak but it created a new problem. My clutch engaugement would be set at the middle, but after driving a few miles, it would slowly end up being at the very top of the peddle. Making the peddle feel very stiff (like pushing 60lb ft torque); also like an on and off switch. I took it all apart and notice the push rod was bent. A new rod fixed that. This did fix alittle of my problems. Every morning I would get into my car and notice that the peddle feel is back to normal. engaugement is in the middle. But the problem comes back the more I drive. I bought a new slave cylinder with an SS line from a member on this forum. Thought this would fix it but I was wrong. Then I went out and bought a brand new Clutch master cylinder. Thought it fixed it. 3 days with no problems and now today; I'm back to square one.

Also, when i leave my car idle. the clutch engaugement ends up disaparing off the peddle. I really hope this isn't a bent clutch fork or something where i have to drop the tranny. =\

an hr ago, i was stuck on the side of the road bleeding my lines; because the engaugement disapared.

edit: took a look at everything. removed the stupid loop on my lines. gravity bleed then pump bleeding (3 pumps then hold, bleed). I also let the car idle for like 10mins, the clutch engaugement stayed the same.
We'll see how well this fixed the problem by tonight.

edit2: After driving the car around (40 miles streets). The clutch seems to be working like normal. But I can feel something strange on the engaugement. Hope it's not a bad pressure plate. =X
