you can't adjust it by looking at it. Adjust it a little bit and then drive and see what it feels like. I liked mine to engage about inch or two off the floor.

how much play should there be in the arm that is on the out side of the tranny. i would say that the clutch engages about 4in from the floor right now. can't u have the clutch engage all the time which will wear out the clutch? i'm afraid that the clutch is going to wear out b/c of the cable not be adjusted correctly.

adjust it till it feels right, there should be no play in the arm it should be taught from the tension of the cable
