You would have to push pretty damn hard on the fork to get it to move. Put the slave cylinder back on. The tricky part is making sure that it lines up wit the fork right. Have someone press the pedal while you look through the window on the bottom. If it works right, continue on.

Also, when you're watching to see that the slave cylinder piston hits the pocket on the clutch fork, look to see that the wedge collar/ring is indeed locked securely to the pressure plate. The collar will withdraw about 1/4", but that should be all.
