/// Some where in the thread you said the transmission had been removed and replaced. Did you do it or have it done? Check all the motor and transmission mounts. The position of the motor and transmission in the frame will also set the pedal friction point.

I had this happen in an manual to auto transmission swap. The auto transmission mount would not match the holes in the frame so the mechanic took a torch and burned the holes out to oval. Both motor mounts were bad and the engine had slipped back about a quarter inch.

The condition inside the clutch will greatly change the position. If there has been wear on the fork ends that small wear is multiplied by the length of the lever outside the clutch. Check the correct dimension of that lever then the shape and dimensions of the fork ends. The throw out bearing in rare cases can fail in a manner that will change the dimensions of the clutch lever and it's action.
