If you have not pulled the clutch delay valve go do it ASAP.
The car now drives properly. The clutch has a sweet take up and there is no second guessing the timing on your shifts. Even my novice 15 year old, on his learners permit, shifts smoothly now.
Some tips.
Plan on bleeding old school with one person pumping and one person under the car with a hose and a wrench. I tried a vacuum bleeder and it will not pull fluid using it solo.
The bleed valve is odd and annoying. (it is 11mm if you are going to climb under the car with a wrench soon!) Open it until it flows then close just enough to stop flow when you are bleeding. No reason to close all the way while bleeding. Make sure you close it all the way when done.
Popping the valve out is a piece of cake. Pull it and throw it away. Just reseat the hose back onto the fitting and get the clip installed again...then bleed.
If you really want to put the gutted valve back in then put a screw driver in the large end and push the guts out. See photo below.
But why bother...there is plenty of line available and the fittings all mate up perfect with no issues.

Clutch Delay valve....BOO!!!!...lets get that out of there. Slide the wire clips over and the lines slide apart. Reconnect the hard and rubber line all the way and push the clip back in.
No Clutch Delay Valve...YEAH!!!

No wonder the clutch felt sluggish and the timing of the shifts was wonky.
Flushed the brake fluid while I had the car on the lift. That you can do with a vacuum bleeder.
