Default Clutch Pedal Height

Afternoon everyone had a quick question to ask about my 1990 C2. Just recently had a new clutch and flywheel installed (less than 300 miles ago) at a reputable shop here in Atlanta area (Franz Blam). Picked up the car and it drives very nicely, What bothers me a bit is that it grabs (consistently) at a much higher point than previously. I had to take the car back for some more work and I had them recheck and bleed the system again. Also had them check the clutch slave cylinder and they mentioned that it was fine as well. Is there something they missed or something I am overlooking or is there a breaking in point?
Why does the pedal grab so much higher now. It does grab at the same height (travel) now.

Should grab top 1/3 or so of travel. Is it higher than that?

If I am on level ground and I let the pedal up from being completely depressed it grabs at about mid way up to full release. With my other cars when I did a clutch job (cable) it grabbed as soon as you let up the pedal.

That's is what I thought. Just a little surprised I guess. I have been out for a while and it fells good to be back in the Rennlist community.
