2G Clutch not engaging?

[AlexGsxCummins]

I just put a new act flywheel, southbend kevlar clutch, forged shift fork, OEM tob, OEM slave. Master was not changed out.. I think my clutch is not fully engaging, I've never fully gotten on the car yet because I'm breaking in the clutch but I got it close to making boost and it feels like its slipping but the car is losing power but rpms dont really jump up. My master had about 1 thread before falling out of the pedal before the slave would not depress as shown in Jack's video. And my pedal was resting against the bracket holding the curse switch. I'm guessing that may be part of the issue

Where is the disengagment / engagement range currently at on the pedal? It should be only disengaging the clutch from about 0-2" off the floor. If it is higher than that, you are over-adjusted and you need to adjust your master cylinder adjustment rod back into the pedal assembly and away from the master cylinder, and you may need to adjust the clutch switch as well afterwards. It sounds like you are pre-loading your clutch currently with the pedal up, causing it to not have full clamping force.

Glad you replied tim! My old clutch yes would engage about 2 inches off the floor. Now it's about 50% travel to engage.. so I adjusted it to Jack's video witch blocked the slave st the point it is now, I felt that was wrong with the master about to fall out of the back of the pedal. So should I ignore this and adjust it to a engagement point instead? Of 2" off the floor?

That is correct, adjust it, and you may need to bleed the system again as well.

Alright, I got it set to 2 inches off the floor it doesn't slip now with light throttle, sense in still doing the break in. But there's about a inch or 2 of "free play" at the top of the pedal is that alright? I have a new master I never installed nor sure if it would help at all..

if it is floppy free play you can adjust the upper clutch switch. You can also make sure you have the return spring installed. If you need a new return spring, it is MB807307. Here's an attached image.
