used some ebay F1 Stage 2 clutch, adjusted the pushrod pretty far out of the clutch pedal more into the master cylinder to get it to shift. right before my battery died due to charging issues, i was stopped on a small incline, car in 1st with clutch all the way out. would slowly start rolling when rpm's got to 4k rpm, i went into parking lot and am getting tow home. when i was installing clutch disc and pressure plate i had to screw one bolt in, c clamp down the other side a little to be able to put screw in and did that for all 6 bolts, so i think the pressure plate has plenty of clamping for on the disc. you guys think its poor clutch pedal/pushrod adjustment??

my plan for adjusting is back pushrod a good bit into the pedal and out of the master cylinder, let the car idle. clutch in try to shift into 1st then reverse, if its choppy/doesnt go adjust pedal more into master cylinder.
