Clutch adjustment problem

[California Charlie]

I just finished a complete clutch overhaul with a new clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing etc.

With everything together I'm finding that I cannot get the clutch adjusting mechanism to reach from the clutch pedal to the actuating lever that comes out from the bell housing.

The throwout bearing appears to be right up against the pressure plate.

Am I missing something that has to do with the transmission gearing (I have the shift tower off of the transmission.

Can someone tell me what I may me missing.

I appreaciate whatever help you can give to me.
