Changing point of clutch engagement

Now I've never had a problem with this until this year.

I have a SLP billet flywheel and a Spec Stage III clutch in the car and when it was new it engaged right where it was suppose to. When I had it torn down to rebuild the motor I had the flywheel cleaned up and sent the disk and PP back to Spec (at the time they were having problems with the Stage III disk's coming apart) and they cleaned up the PP and sent me a new disk. Now that the car is all back together and broken in, the clutch doesn't engage til the last few inches of travel....while this makes shifting a breeze I can't stand taking off with it like this, not only that I would hate to see it start to slip. Anyway to change it without an adjustible master cylinder? Space out the flywheel from the crank?

The adjustable master cylinder is the only way to adjust where your clutch engages.

Ya know I am having the SAME ISSUE. I just got my new star spec stage 3 (6 puck) clutch, and their billet flywheel. I got it for free pretty much cus the stage 2 i had was screwed cus the flywheel was cut to low from the factory and daily driving tore it up when the high engagment. So during the break in period it was GREAT, but now its up top agian. I think I am going to call spec.
