clutch pedal shuld be level with brake when not pressed
if its lifting very quickly --like half way --maybe cable is adjusted wrong and over centereing the clutch causing it to bind?
full clear about 1-2 "off floor  would be correct presuming std clutch

Clutch pedal should be level with the brake pedal yes. But can I just point out - these clutch pedals are all operated via a hydraulic master cylinder not a cable as seen is older/other cars.

Nice  :happy2:

You can easily check crank end float by levering on the crank pulley.  There should be barely any movement at all.  If the pulley pops out a good 3-4mm, it's engine out time as the thrust bearing is shot.

FWIW.... apart from the pedal sticking down, some sports clutches like the earlier Helix kit for example, can exhibit exactly the same symptoms.
