My clutch has been working fine for the passed few years after I did my sr swap. Last night driving home from work I almost stalled my car a few times and realized it's because my clutch won't grab until about half way depressed. Today when I went out to drive it got even worse. Now it won't grab until the clutch pedal is depressed almost all the way to the floor. What could be going out?

The clutch doesn't grab when you push it in. It grabs when you let off of it... Sounds like your clutch is gone.

the last time a clutch went out on my other car it was due to slipping. is this just another way they go out?

Check the fluid in your resevoir. Your might need to add fluid.

You have a leak, and I'm almost 100% certain that the clutch fluid reservoir is the culprit.
Easy fix. The "hardest" part is bleeding the clutch when you're done.

maybe you have an internal clutch master cylinder leak. sounds like fluid is getting behind the primary cup.

Overall just check for leaky fluid.... and the clutch grabs when you let go... maybe you should be better at describing what you are experiencing, so you said it grabs when you push in the clutch? doesn't make sense.

and if you haven't already, get rid of the damper block! its fucking useless and impossible to bleed out.

Have you adjusted the Rod from the pedal to the Master? My buddies done this. I adjusted the rod and it works fine now.
