Initially a few inches off the floor but as it wore it got lower and lower until the pedal would be to the floor and the car would lunge forward when you tried to push it in first gear (dragging) so I adjusted the pedal so that it no longer engaged right off the floor board.
By the way how's that Tilton do driving around from day to day ie. cold vs warm etc?

Well my engagement point is still high and nowhere near the floor, but it just got cold and the first day it got cold it was alittle harder to get into 1st..Mabye I just need to change the tranny juice and bleed the system..Still shifts though.

I'm finally getting that box of marbles sound everyone talks about that I've never really had. Driving it daily isn't as easy as the stock clutch but neither was the exedy. These twin discs have their moments that make you look silly at a stop light.

I have a chatter and sometimes clunking on decel. It has to be those twin discs coming together. Even though all these nuisances I love the clamping force

I'm beginning to wonder if mine is about worn out or if something else is going on, It's locking me out of 4th here and there..funny thing is that other gears are fine and it's not grinding.

I forgot to post a follow-up on my exedy dragging issue. I noticed the shifter wasn't centering correctly and narrowed the problem down to the linkage on the tranny. I took the entire arm off and found the pivot that slides inside the bushing very corroded. I sanded down that pin and put it back together. Since then the shifter centers perfect and the tranny shifts amazing now with hardly any dragging. Nothing changed in the tranny, fluid etc. since the last time. I just need a moment now to put the thing up on 4 jack stands and see if the wheels are engaged when I try to put the car into gear.
Kinda OT based on recent discussion but I wanted to let people know just the same.
