Default Need Input on Clutch Issue

I recently installed a Spec clutch on an excellent flywheel. For whatever reason, the clutch does not release immediately. In other words, it drags a bit which keeps the input shaft turning and slows down the shift. If you shift slow and keep a firm pressure on the shifter it is hardly noticeable, but, if you try a fast shift it is difficult to make the shift, it is like hitting a wall.

I have bled the cylinder multiple times. The clutch now has approximately 500 miles. I know it is not the trans because it shifts into gear easily with the engine off or if you wait for a few seconds for the clutch to spin down.

What I need if anyone can help is the finger height off of the flywheel on a stock clutch , with the clutch bolted down. This will have to be done fairly accurately. I believe the Spec clutch has a finger height and fulcrum that will not allow the clutch to totally disengage. If anyone has seen this same issue, I am open to all suggestions.
