Default Need help, clutch wont dis-engage

I just finished the auto to manual conversion, went to start it with the clutch pedal in and the car lunged forward.... :-(

Did some testing and even made it so the lever on the tranny would go up slightly higher when I push the pedal in but no luck. The only thing I can think of is maybe I installed the clutch disc backwards.. Anyone got a pic of which way it should go. I want to rule out as many possibilites before I tear the tranny out again.

ok, I went and looked at this walkthrough, so the disc is facing the right way.... I used the new throw out bearing and made sure it worked before mounting. Any input or ideas would be great guys..

Check to make sure that you are using the right cable if it is a cable tranny. If it is a hydo. tranny make sure that you connected the hoses in the right way.

So you adjusted the clutch cable by twisting the **** down by the tranny? lol, it's always the mindless oversights that own me. Can't remember which way to turn it, but it takes quite a bit of turning to get anywhere adjustmentwise.

Its a cable, Im using a 88 crx cable. The bracket that the cable attaches to is off of an 86 integra but it looks like it lines up.

I'll go twist the hell out of the adjustment **** and see if anything happens. Any other suggestions would be great.
