Default GSR cable tranny/clutch arm issues... Help!

I need some help or advice with some tranny/clutch arm issues. I have installed a sprung 6 puck clutch with OE flywheel in my GSR trans. All bolted up fine... great! The issue now is when trying to put on the clutch cable. The clutch arm on the trans does not move up enough to get the cable in the bracket. The arm is moving like an inch max (physically grabbing it with my hand and moving it) and I have adjusted the cable out as far as possible. When I was at a junkyard, I was able to move the clutch arm on an Integra with just my hand... It traveled a good amount... mine does not do this. My clutch arm does not move much which I attributed originally to the beefy clutch I have in there. Anyone else had this issue? I am assuming a couple things or asking:

1: Arm does not move because of beefy clutch? If so.. on to #2
2: How do I get the clutch cable on there? (Adjusted all the way... did not give me enough slack to get the cable on the arm and in the bracket)
3: Is my bearing messed up or jammed causing the arm not to move as needed?

I really do not want to have to take the trans back out if all possible. Any ideas would be great. I saw some old threads when I Google searched but it did not really address my issue directly.
Thanks for your help and advice in advance!

Man I can hardly move the oem whit bout of my hands but what u can do to get it up is used a rope and loop it around and have some one put it in there the reason is like that is Cuz the pressure plate is a lot harder also live a little play on the cluch cable Cuz it could snap it
