How to increase clutch pedal disengagement height?

Hi,

On my car, the clutch friction point is very near the bottom of the pedal travel. I wanted to find out if I can adjust it so that it's a bit higher up...I get really screwed up going between my 2 manual tranny cars because their friction points are in completely different places and I slip my other car too much when I'm used to driving my FD.

I was looking at page H6 in the shop manual, but the instructions don't say anything about increasing the disengagement height. Can anyone give me some help?

Thanks!

It's a hydraulic clutch so you can't adjust it. If it grabs down low be thankful that you're not looking at a $$$ clutch job.

I can adjust my clutch height, by adjusting that screw on the clutch pedal. If you unscrew that handle then it catches up at the top, if you screw it in more, then at the bottom.
