Default Adjusting Slave Cylinder position

HI, this is my first post and I am really grateful for such a wealth of information in one location. I recently bought a wildwood pull style slave cylinder and have installed it and bled the hydraulic system. I have a centerforce racing clutch. The clutch used to start engaging immediately after letting up pressure which i think was cutting it too close. I was told by an experienced race car builder that the clutch should start engaging about 1.5 inches off the floor. My problem however is that after a few hundred miles, the pedal starts to engage again real close to the floor and eventually gets to the point where i cannot get the car into gear. So i disconnet the anchor bolt and adjust the rod by shortening the length to pick up the slack. This keeps requiring shortening the length, is there something i am missing? there is no way that the slave has moved to my knowlege. aprreciate the help
