Dave, there are specs for setting up the clutch, but one wants to be set up well on the bench to get it right. I tend to agree with the others, the clutch should be delivred (new or reman) set to specs.
Just as a heads up --- the Rockford clutches anyway (not sure about the Auburns) have a provision for keeping the pressure plate compressed to the cover for installation and removal. Basically three bolts thru the cover into the plate to hold it in the compressed position. When those bolts are in place with the clutch in the box (or on the bench), the fingers will flop. They need to be removed when installed for the clutch to function.
To help you picture it, on those clutches, when removing, you take one of the bolts holding teh cover on and, instead of setting it to the side to keep track of, you insert it thru the cover and thread into the pressure plate. do that with one of each of the bolts at the three points on the cover. It takes the tension off the pressure plate and makes it much easier to remove the other three bolts holding the clutch in place, as well as with the reinstall.
Look around in the middle of the clutch cover to see if there might be three bolt heads lookin' at you. That might be the issue.
