<p>A smaller bore for the slave cylinder or a bigger bore to the
master cylinder or both would help, however the pedal pressure
will increase. Some drag with a new pressure plate is not uncommon
and will wear away after a few thousand miles.<br>

after installing a Smitty's Five Speed Toyota transmission
conversion. I have checked the linkage for wear and do not
see the usual egging out of holes and the hydraulics seem
okay. Would changing the bore size of either or both
cylinders be a fix?</div>

<div dir="auto">Thinking more about your clutch issue.
Your description of symptoms has me confused.
<div dir="auto">Am I correct in assuming that what you
are experiencing is that the clutch starts to
release (slip) after depressing the clutch pedal
only a small distance this being 1 - 2 inches from
its normal (undepressed) position?</div>

catches after I depress the pedal about 1 to 2
inches from the rest position . I’ve replaced the
clutch master cylinder and the slave cylinder. And
I’ve bled the system . There’s. No slipping of the
clutch . Car has 60,000 on it with I’m sure the
original clutch. Is there any way to make it catch
more mid way when I depress the pedal? I know there
are no threaded rods on either the pedal box or at
the transmission end . Maybe a different length rod
coming out of the slave cylinder? <br>
Thanks , Don <br>
