Clutch release on ACT clutch

I installed a new ACT clutch/pressure plate

It has a new resurfaced flywheel and all apropriate stuff done.

Everything works fine but the problem is it only works on the last 1/10 of pedal play (almost on the floor).

the line has absolutly no air (Stainless).

The slave cylinder moves as it should. Very sensitive to the pedal (adjusted pedal play).

I rebuilt the master and the slave is pretty new.

The pedal feel is linear.

Just doesn't seem like an air bleed problem.

I was wondering if the upgraded pressure plate require a longer throw from the slave cylinder.

Perhaps upgrading the Master cylinder would flow enough fluid.

I had to adjust mine after install because it won't disengage completely, even after bleeding the hell out of it

I tried adjusting the peda and it didn't help too much.

It's annoy'n b/c everthing is how I'd like it to be but I would like my clutch engaged/disengage 1/2 instead of all the way down.

it probly does just require more throw than stock so i would just tighten the pedal all the way, it should take care of it unless you have already tightened it as far as it will go

yeah the pedal is maxed

i'm gonna get a new master

maybe when I rebuilt it I did a shitty job or the chamber was worn too much.

Worked fine for stock but then again it was a stock clutch.......
