Hazzah! I got my car back today after a week in the shop for a new clutch, etc. I've been taking it easy for the break-in.

The clutch is a Spec Stage 2 lightweight option. The pedel feel was much lighter at first but seems to have firmed up with in the last 25 miles. The new friction zone is real close to the floor. From what I recall, the stock clutch friction zone was around the center of the pedel's movement.

Total labor at the mechanic's included replacing the clutch, pressure plate, release bearing, release bearing fork, shaft and that lever that the fork is attached to. The labor cost was $950. Total part cost was $600. The total job ened up a bit high, but I am pleased. I can't wait for the 500 mile break-in to be done.
