Is there a clutch adjustment?
Hey guys, I installed a new clutch and flywheel about 5 months ago and now it seems as though it needs to be adjusted 
I have to just about release the pedal all the way before it grabs. And if I push it in more then 2 inches it releases.
At first I thought I might have trashed this clutch already but when I rev it then dump it, it still grabs hard!
So is there any way to adjust this?

The good news is that it doesn't look like you have any air in your clutch line!
Yes, you can adjust the linkage. Personally, I've never done it but several members have. You need to loosen the locknut and back off the clutch switch (above the pedal), then loosen the locknut on the pushrod and adjust it to where you want it. Tighten the locknut. After that, put the clutch switch back and tighten the locknut on that as well.

yeah if you have the shop manual it's in there too (not the owner's manual).
