Question did i put my clutch in right or what?

ok i just got the new Ls6 clutch and light weight fly wheel, and i put it in my self today it took a little over 6 hours but now when i'm driving the car the clutch drops to the floor w/ little or no effort at all is this supposed to happen w/ a new clutch or does it have to be broken in or what?? i thought it needed to be bled so i bled the crap out of it and its still the same? it goes into all gears w/ no problem at all its just that i thought that it was going to be a little stiffer the the stock clutch i had in the car to begin w/. So did i do something wrong or what?? any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated! thanks

This is common for the pedal pressure to change when you get a new clutch. I had the same issue, it actually made the car harder for me to drive, and took a good week to get used to. It usually is a pressure plate that determines the stiffness of the pedal. If you really dont like it, you can get an adjustable master cylinder and adjust it to your liking.
