Remove the bleeder screw and see if the hole is obstructed. Maybe it didn't get drilled??! If that's clear, then check the passage that is drilled into the cylinder bore. If that's clear, then remove the hard line fitting and check its' passage. If that's clear, then remove the piston from the cylinder and check the end of the bore. There may have been a washer (or similar part) installed that is blocking the flow between the inlet port and the bleeder screw port.

You should be able to gravity bleed the slave. Fill the master cyl and open the bleeder screw. Brake fluid will soon begin to flow out of the bleeder screw. This is how I did mine. Didn't even need to connect the bleeder.

As I recall, the stock slave cyl bore is 1", and the stock clutch master bore is 11/16" or .6875" (early cars)
