Did you just install the clutch? Are all of the disks installed in the proper direction and orientation. Make sure the slave is operating properly as well.

sounds like clutch is not dis-engaging, could be warped floater plates could be spring popped out disc,or throw out bearing is half out of clutch may have to remove trans and see.

possible re build time

I would agree with turbo8, anytime you can shift fine with the car off then on you cant shift theres something wrong inside the trans.

Did you have anyone check the fork arm as you pushed the clutch in with the engine off? possibly damaged wedge collar? tob maybe not attaching righ to wedge collar?

I dont think you can connect the cables wrong.. thats pretty self explanatory lol.

so id go with something mangled in the fork, tob, clutch assembly in general.

long shot.. but did you forget to push the fork arm back so it grabs the wedge collar? sorry trying to think of everything here.

put your car on a flat surface. (make sure it's clear infront of you)
take the E Brake off.
start the car in neutral
depress the clutch pedal
put the car in 1st gear
rev to 7000rpm (while the you have 1st selected and the clutch is depressed)
if your car moves at all, you have clutch drag. It needs to be adjusted, or something else is wrong.

I would advise doing that on jackstands and doing the following:

1. Start the engine and put the car into 1st gear.

2. Slowly let the clutch out until the wheels start to turn round and round.

3. Now slowly push the clutch in until the wheels stop turning. Hold the clutch at this position.

4. At this point the clutch pedal should be at least 2-3 inches off the carpet. If not then the clutch needs adjustment and/or the clutch needs to be inspected for issues that are causing it not to release fully.

The reason why the clutch should be this far off the floor at the engagement point is to allow enough room for movement of the clutch disc so it finds a nice center position between the flywheel and pressure plate. While this may be a tedious method to make sure clutch is functioning properly but this is the preferred method and the true reality check for where the clutch releases.
