Well, if the pedal is REALLY lose, it could be:

* that is not pumping any fluid to the slave cylinder because there is air in the line (bleed the line) or there is no fluid to pump (add fluid).

* the slave cylinder is shot (unlikely)

* the master cylinder is shot (unlikely)(can be checked when you try to bleed the system).

* the clutch fork/ throw out bearing is not pushing on the pressure plate.

* you forgot to install the pressure plate or the throw out bearing or the clutch fork (just kidding).

* have you ever replaced a clutch before .. ??

I'm about to go along with @lizbrayan ...... you just might have to take it apart and put it back together.

QUESTIONS for you:

If the clutch was aftermarket, what clutch is it .. ??

Did it come as a set (flywheel, clutch disk & pressure plate) .. ??

Did you replace the throw out (release) bearing ..??

Come back ....

Story on me. The first time I overhauled an engine, when I went to crank (literally) it over ..... it wouldn't budge. Why? Cause I didn't realize that the piston rod caps were shimmed and the new rod bearings were thicker than the old rod bearings.......

(hey, cut me some slack, I was only 14 years old )
