Default Question about clutch engagment

I just got done putting in my swap and I installed an Exedy clutch and flywheel. When I started to drive the car i noticed that the clutch doesnt engage until the pedal is almost completely up. Anyway I can fix this?

Mine does that also. I have a Clutchnet StageII.

You can adjust the clutch engagement pedal with a screw on the master cylinder.
The high engagement is actually better since it helps to prevent missed shifts. I would leave it alone.

Did you bleed the system correctly? It sounds as if you didnt bleed the clutch system good enough. And this is a upgrade clutch correct?
