Is the rod from the clutch pedal to the z-bar the correct length? the Z-Bar does look like it sits odd in the pivots. You do have the plastic spherical half moon pivots in?

My Z-bar did indeed hit my Dougs headers and needed modified. My car is currently part for TKO install so if you need pics or length measurements message me.

I've been told its better for the throw out bearing to ride the clutch a bit. Its harder on it to spin up then down to a stop then slam into the pressure plate finger and spin up again then it is to be tuning with the motor. You just don't want it to over "ride" the pressure plate.
