Default 98-00 guys, where does your clutch "grab"

hey does your guy's clutches grab kind of high, or do they grab kind of low.


Just checking some stuff out.


In the whole travel of the pedal mine probaby grabs in the last 1/4 if not less of the movement.

Mine's pretty good..maybe 25-30% off the floor. I had an 01 car that you need to lift at least halfway up to get it to grab.

Mine is a Z06 clutch and it releases about 2 inches off the floor, which leaves the rest of the pedal travel useless.

I've got the stock hydraulics on my 99. Both the stock clutch and the Z06 clutched start to grab about 1 inch from the floor and I'm pretty sure it didn't fully clamp until the pedal was almost fully up. It allows you to start smoothly, but the shifts are slow.
