Maybe you got a bunk pedal?

That being said, it is easily reversible and relatively easy to try both ways.
I definitely respect your opinion as I've seen your posts around the forum. You definitely know more then me (that kinda sounds sarcastic but im not lol). That makes me wonder if maybe I did something wrong? Or its a bad pedal like you said. A tech from autocouture even drove it and said there was def something wrong and I should try either loosening up the nuts/bolts or adding some lubricant. I even called EAS who I bought it from and their tech recommended I take out the springs. Thats when I took it out and everything was normal. I even tried leaving the smaller spring in and even then it still wasnt right. Still no slop without the springs and it eliminated the whole clutch getting stuck and not moving right or smooth problem.

Edit: what position do you have your spring in? I contacted someone from UCP and they advised me to use the position furthest from the pedal arm. That happens to be the only position I didn't try. But I also dnt see why they would offer other positions if they don't work. Also remember reading someone else using the middle position with no issues
I just checked and I can confirm that mine is installed on the middle of the 3 settings.

I figure you are probably pretty good at tearing down and installing it by now. I?d give it a go one more time to try to narrow down the possibilities of what went wrong. It?s hard to mess up the pedal from a manufacturing stand point since the design is relatively simple, but anything is possible.

PM me if you have any troubleshooting questions. I?ll try to help out the best I can.
