You need to fix your pedal ratio
in this photo it doesn't even look like that clevis is even going to reach the hole....also because the ratio is wrong the pedal isn't going to travel very far before it bottoms out in the master cylinder. You can go to a smaller master but it still wont let the pedal move far enough before it bottoms out in the master

I will revisit the measurements, though I'm sure that's been done before, but you are right, in that doing this eliminates one issue.

Though as can be seen in the photo below from early in my first build stages, the pivot ratio and hence leverage into the clutch master is well in my favour. I don't believe this was altered during the current rebuild but I will check for completeness.



As a top pivot clutch pedal system what's the suggested ratio between distance above and below the clutch master connection point onto the clutch pedal?

So how big is your slave Paul???
