Sounds like you should shorten the effective length of the
slave cylinder pushrod. I had to. Else, the pedal overdrove
the clutch plate and the clutch fingers rubbed on the flywheel
(I think that's what happened!) causing the clutch to re-engage.
Try this --- try clutching about 1 inch short of the bottom of the
pedal throw. If that works, then shorten the push rod a little.
