Calgary,
It seems like it does more often when it is hot outside. The clutch pedal will feel hard and the disengage/engage point will seem higher. Once I let my car cool down it will go back to normal? Little background on the clutch system. Over a year ago I put in a Shep tranny, ACT clutch, lightened flywheel, slave cyclinder, etc. Any ideas? Cant figure this one out.
 
Hey I was under there and I am not sure where to adjust? Do you think you could maybe snap a picture and circle where you had to adjust? Think I have the idea just want to be 100% positive. I think this is where I am suppose to adjust. Can you explain it to me a little better than the link. Where do I want the freeplay?
Here is the picture I found.
 
I had this same problem after my 2600 got installed. I didn't really worry about it UNTIL...

I'm on a road trip to TX from CA and I'm about 1/3 of the way there... After a stop for food, I start up the car, push the clutch in, and it sucked itself to the floor. I gave it a pump or 2 and it worked enough to engage. After I made it to TX (by a miricle) I changed the (new) slave cylinder. That, of course, didn't work. Now I'm waiting on a SS Clutch line because the problem was actually a leak in the clutch line.

All that to say that's a possibility. It may not be a huge deal now, but it could turn into one.

My 2 cents...
