Question clutch locked

Anyone have this happen? Was going from curtis Bay to Bel Air, getting off at Rt24 (50 min up I-95) the clutch pedal wouldn't go down, the pedal was hard like a brake pedal, coasted on the shoulder pumped it and finally engaged. Been fine before and since. Running Jr on SW2 slipped a little once 2 weeks ago.
Fluid was fine at Oil chg a month ago.???????

The clutch was slipping and stuck to the flywheel.

My stock clutch started slipping with the Jr and the GDP intake too. I have stock tires unlike your 315’s but I’m running a GV. A new Southbend OFE fixed my issue.

The hard pedal happens to me from time to time. Also seems like the clutch drags a little at times, making for difficult shifts.
