I just recently put a brand new clutch in my csvt, and I've been noticing when I shift clutch seems to be sticking and sometimes hard to put into gear. Is this normal or is there anything I can do to stop that from happening. Thanks

could be your trans syncros...try posting in the trans forum. 
Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.

You might get more response by posting in the Transaxle forum, but not necessarilly, I guess. Since you have a csvt, we can assume that you have an MTX-75 transmission. What we can't assume is the type of clutch you put in, what other mods you did to the tranny, and who did the work, etc.
I don't know too much, but there might be a problem with how your transmission was re-installed, instead of the problem being the new clutch.
Also, what do you mean by the clutching sticking? I thought this was a good thing.

it could be a couple of things , did you do the trans yourself??? you might just need to bleed the clutch, or the shifter linkage might need to be adjusted

I just got a new factory clutch put it at a Ford Dealership. What i mean by sticking is when I try to shift into gears it doesn't want to. I have to put it back into neutral a few times then try putting it in gear again.

Sounds like the linkage needs to be adjusted. Make the Stealership fix it. It should have been done right to begin with.

And what would you adjust?
There is no clutch adjustment.
There may be some air in the hydraulic linkage though not aloowing full disengagement. Try bleeding the clutch or even better, change the clutch (and brake) fluid.
