Are there any other adjustments for the clutch other than engagement on the bracket under the dash?

The shifter cables when popped off the posts they line up exactly with the holes. (Thats how I was told to 'align the cables').

I do have a stainless line that needs to be installed that didn't arrive in time to go in with all my other parts. Should I try installing that, and then bleeding the clutch and see where I'm at?

I'm just so frustrated spending that kind of cash and not seeing an improvement!!! Any ideas?
If your lines have air in them, then you will be lucky to get into gear at all. But it is still a good idea to double check that it is properly bleed. If the clutch is dragging after it has been bleed, then adjusting the pedal will not help. The only cure for a warped disk is a new disk.

Aligning the cables over the pins on the arms is a good start, but if you pull up your shift boot in the car, you will see the left side cable has a turn buckle on it. Play around with the adjustment on that and see if it gets any better. Just make sure you don't keep trying to shift into gear if it grinds. That is result in accelerated synchro wear. Not just the rings, but the dog teeth on the $300 gear and $350 hub&sleeve assembly as well.
