Either there is air in your lines or your slave cylinder is bad. Could also still be the master cylinder.
If you can feel the driveshaft try to move shifting into 1st while stopped your clutch is dragging.
You have probably wrecked the transmission syncros by shifting it with the clutch dragging.
You can bust a transmission in a few shifts if the clutch drags. I really hope you haven't hurt yours, but the way you sound your clutch is dragging bad.
Anothing thing that may have happened is the mechanic that installed your transmission may have had the weight of the transmission on the clutch and warped the clutch disc. This can happen if you get the input shaft of the trans partially in the clutch disc and do not have the transmission on the doll pins in the engine yet and do not support the trans.
Once a clutch disc is bent like this it is almost always ruined and will always drag.
