I like Sandy's idea on bleeding by pushing fluid back up thru master to reservoir.
You assure us it's bled and you offer believable proofs, including the obvious, that it must have been for you to reinstall everything after changing the engine. But what are the chances it has lost bleed since you assembled it?
Can you take the plastic cover off, and check again that you can easily fit the Saab special tool into the pressure plate?
If so, something else is jamming the clutch and locking it to the flywheel and pressure plate even with pressure plate released. Did anything fall in there as you assembled it?
On a car I fixed for a friend last fall, one of the clutch disk springs cracked and pieces jammed the pressure plate.
CAN the clutch disk be put in backwards, that is, swelled-out part of its center towards the engine instead of towards the pressure plate? If so, what happens?
