When your ready to bleed it hold the clutch about 3/4 of the way to the floor, have your buddy open the bleed screw, then press it to the floor then have him close it.
The brakes are designed to never bottom out so you don't need to do this, but with the clutch it is designed to bottom out, so if you hold it right to the boards then open the bleed screw it will bleed, but not as fast, so use my method will help you out.

Hi,
Sorry, the Porsche Clutch is different. You need to use a pressure bleeder and you do need to have the clutch pedal to the floor. A quote from the Dealer Service manual:
"Important notes:
The clutch hydraulics must always be filled or bled using a pressure filling and bleeding device. Furthermore, the bleeder valve must be opened sufficiently and the gauge pressure must be approx. 1.5 bar.
Before the system is filled or bled, the clutch pedal must be in the "pedal fully depressed" position. Important: As there is no system pressure, servo kinematic effects will cause the clutch pedal to move forward abruptly. In order to avoid damage, the pedal must be guided manually..."
Hope this helps...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
