Just a thought, Check to see where the push-rod is connected to the pedal. Seeing that all this mechanical clutch stuff works on a fulcrum principal sort off. Your clutch fork has to be at a certain angle also. I know when done the throw out bearing rides very close to the pressure plate fingers. Might be an issue with the pressure plate. I guess you could start the engine up with the tranny out and very carefully check it for straightness. Another issue that sometimes happens is the flywheel bolts interfere with the clutch hub. I've had that happen. Also make sure the spring on the clutch fork is strong enough to pull it away from the pressure plate. Some of these after market clutch forks aren't as good as the stock ones. Just some thoughts. Good luck
