wtf - bled brakes now clutch engages higher...
I did a brake job yesterday and changed rotors, pads, and switched to ss brake lines. because of the brake line install I obviously had to bleed the system. bled system normally and brakes work flawlessly, Im very pleased. with minimum pedal pressure the brakes start grabbing like a fat kid in a candy store and Im more then happy with how they turned out.
Anyways, the whole point to this thread was when I went to bedd in the pads and rotors the clutch engagement point was at a different point then before. Its now about 1" higher then before and there seems to only be about 1"-2" of pedal travel before the pedal stops at its "top" position. The car still drives the same, still goes into gear and shifts fine during normal driving conditions. I havent quick shifted, power shifted, or shifted at anything above 4000rpm's and the car seems fine.
I guess my ?'s are these:
should I be worried about anything? the car is my daily driver
should I just try adjusting the pedal and see if that fixes it?
should I just leave it alone?
will leaving it alone cause me any problems? ie: not fully disengaging the clutch and burning it up......
any help would be greatly appreciated. please dont preach about searching either, I searched and theres a guzzilion threads and I dont have time to sit here for days and read them all. Sorry this was so long and sorry if this is in the wrong forum

I thought about bleeding the clutch but Ill be installing a ss clutch line and doing the restrictor removal mod next weekend so I guess Ill just wait until then to do so.
Anybody else have any more advice or thoughts to help me out?
