Funny how not until page 7 was clutch pedal adjustment mentioned. Thanks for the ideas and suggestions though!!!

Anyways, yes I did adjust that so it starts engaging really close to the floor. As I understand it, that increases the clutches throw. It is almost like the clutch isn't fully disengaging, I dont know if thats different or the same as 'dragging'.

That is a resurfaced flywheel in there. Done just before installation. I can only assume the step height was correct.

I am going to install that new clutch line, and bleed the clutch tomorrow. My mechanic thinks there could be a slight air bubble or something. If after I do that and there is no improvement, I am taking it down to him so he can pull the trans and see what the deal is. That is my last resort and its going to cost me about another 500 just for him to check it out again.
You have it backwards. The closer to the top that the clutch engages the more travel it has (to a point). You still need some freeplay at the top for everything to work right.
