So I just finished up putting in my southbend clutch and UR flywheel. Everything is all back together fine and no real issues during the install.
However, the clutch engagement point is about 1/2" off the floor. This makes it extremely difficult to get the car into gear and 1st grinds unless I'm at a complete stop.
Any ideas what I may have done wrong or something I need to adjust? My OEM clutch engaged about 2" off the floor and it's just waaaaaaay too low now.
Thanks!

You might need to adjust your clutch pedal. If you look under the steering wheel
console, you should see a jack screw that connects to the top of the clutch pedal, and goes to the master cylinder through the firewall.

Yeah, I did some searching (should've done that first) and found all the clutch adjustment threads. All of those were for the exactly opposite issue, so I'll just do the reverse and see what's what.
Thanks bro.

Will do, so far I've only driven the car twice thus it's far from broken in. I'm just waiting until I get a chance to make adjustments to the pedal to bring the engagement point up a bit.
