I used the Quicktime housing and had to do several things to get things to line up. It took a long time to sort all of this out, but I used the original fork.

First, I had to get a spacer block from ERA. See manual, about page 36, section on clutch slave cylinder. Next, I had to increase the size of the clutch master cylinder to 1.0 inch to get enough fluid to the slave cylinder. This increased the pedal effort, but still not too bad. Finally, I had to trim some metal away from the bellhousing flange to fully clear the slave cylinder.

I think The issue relates to the type clutch disc you choose. Mine has the very long fingers which I suspect cause the problem.
