Perry,

Which clutch fork setup are you using? Is the pivot on the passenger side of the bellhousing? If it is, adjust the pushrod like Bill said in an earlier post, but don't bottom out the slave cylinder-you need to leave some travel because as the clutch wears, the clutch fork moves towards the rear of the vehicle.

If you have someone helping you when bleeding the clutch, just have them depress the pedal once and hold it down while you open the bleed screw. Do this a few times until there are no air bubbles in the fluid. You don't need to push on the pushrod or the clutch fork. If you pump the pedal multiple times before opening the bleed screw, you will aerate the fluid. If you still don't have enough travel, you can adjust the clutch pedal up higher to get more travel. There is an adjustment on the master cylinder pushrod under the dash.
