THe clutch fingers are adjusted for the primary purpose of making the throwout bearing touch each finger equally, and uniformly. This is to avoid viabration and chattering from unequal release action and wiggling of the TO bearing. The distance is (I believe) with a new Driven Disk, and is after installation and tightening. An inch is (from experience) reasonable for this movement. The clutch adjustment at the pedal rod linkage is primary.
The finger adjustment (if taken to extremes) will not correct issues with a worn driven disk.
I usually leave the fingers alone unless there is obvious uneven contact with the throwout bearing.
When measured there should be less than .020" difference in the tip to cover distance. If the driven disk is worn unevenly it will cause the fingers to be different every time they close on the disk in a different place. A new disk should be equal thickness at all points and as such the fingers should be even at every release position of the driven disk, and the pressure plate. I hope this helps, let us know your findings. JimN
