clutch adjustment question

I need some advise here. I put this clutch in . McLeod street pro I think. I am not used to the travel. I have not had a 4 speed in a Dart in 40 years. What is the typical travel on one of these. Does this pedal go to the floor. This one doesn't. In my semi, it releases close to the top. I have not got this running but I am not sure it feels right. It seems like this pedal goes maybe 3/4 the way to the floor and stops. what is the proper way to adjust this clutch from the start up. I read somewhere about 1" free play. again, this is different than a truck that I am used to. The rod from the z-bar to the fork. where do I set it. I know a lot of you guys told me to REMOVE the spring from the pedal. I have not done that yet. Is that where the problem is. This pedal does not go to the floor and stay. I did not see a lot of room between the spring coils to put washers. I will probably just cut the damn thing with a cut off wheel. Just want to be sure before I do anything. will removing the spring allow the pedal to go farther or is it supposed to go almost to the floor. someone guide me through this and the adjustment. Thanks,Bill
