I also have a Datsun slave attached to my bellhousing. My actuator rod is also bent.

Either you extended the piston past the cup-seal or your replacement is not good.

Do you have a positive stop on your pedal?

May I suggest you do the following:

1. get the car in the air.
2. put a person in the driver's seat.
3. crawl under the car with a good light.
4. ask them to push in the pedal...all the way.
5. measure the distance.

If it is more than an inch, you are traveling beyond the slave's piston travel.

Hope this helps.
