Different clutch manufactures have different clutch feel. Luk is known for the ease of the clutch disengagement. A clutch rated for more HP and torque will be a little stiffer. I think your paranoid, I'd button it up, make sure it's neutral crank it up, and put it in gear and drive it. Only way to know for sure. Make sure give it a good 500 mile break in before you go giving it the beans. Enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Well turns out that I was indeed just paranoid and it’s just a lighter clutch feel. Slapped everything together and she slips right into gear like it should. So glad I’m finally done with this and got it shifting good again. Thanks all who contributed, I know it was kind of a mess but I’m glad you guys were here to help me out. I’ll research the right way to break it in tomorrow
