Default Just got my motor back in... (clutch)

in sounds different (good way)and runs better. i belive i have a heater core leak now and my oil level sensor started to leak [:@]but most important i only had it running for a couple minutes but when i press my clutch in (pedal feels to short and easy) i couldn't get it in gear. Almosteverything is new, pilot bearing, flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, and throw out bearing. im going to make a guess and say i need a new adjustable cable considering theres no noises or anything, and wheni look into the bellhouseing eveything looks fine.

Yep,when the adjustment is too far out way one or the other it will make it very difficult to get it in gear.
