Joe, Are you saying you clutch "pedal" went to zero after putting Redline Tranny Oil into the tranny???? Actually when I first read your post, it almost sounded like you put the tranny oil into the clutch hydraulic system, which of course would be a disaster. I don't know about having to have a power bleeder, but I replaced my clutch master cylinder, and then refilled the brake/clutch hydraulic fluid tank. Once done, the system self-bled as I rapidly pumped the clutch pedal 75-100 times. I didn't drain the clutch hyraulic system completely nor bleed the clutch slave cylinder at the time I did all this. But I have not had any trouble now in the two years since I did this. I went through a period of having to replace the clutch master, and the brake master. I suspect the next hydraulic item to fail and require replacement will be the slave cylinder.
