MG MGA - Clutch 1/2 inch travel

Rebuilt trans and put all back in the car. I have blead my clutch bunches of times. Two man manual and auto bleed system. Still have 1/2 inch travel which prevents me getting into reverse. I can get into the other which I assume is because of the sincronizers. Raised the cars front end hoping that would help. Bleed screw is on the top. Pushed the slave shaft in while bleeding. Out of ideans. Bubbles still come out regardless of the method used, but have had success bleeding with the auto bleed in my MGA and still had the bubbles. Presently I have gone through a quart and half of sinthetic oil which I have been using for a few years without problems.
Help!
