ball stud height?
What does adjusting the height of the ball stud do to the clutch mechanism? I have the hydraulic clutch with the T-5 and I'm experiencing early release with a high pedal. I know there is no adjustment of the hydraulic system, but the stud height must affect something! I have the centerforce dual clutch...perhaps this clutch is not meant for our cars? something is out of wack...anybody else have this prob?

No...we didn't do a thing to it....the unit comes sealed and bled..we just installed it and stepped on the clutch to break the plastic strap that holds the end of the pushrod to the slave cylinder. That's all we did...
