Clutch travel

Hi guys I'm currently fitting my floor mounted pedals and fitting a new clutch cable. Only problem is when I'm fitting it to the lever on gearbox it moves backwards and forwards around 5 inches. Is this how far the pedal has to move to work.
Lever all the way to right engages clutch and all the way left disengages.
If so that's a whole lot of pedal movement and will just hit the bulkhead and be all the way forward

I have never seen a clutch arm move anything like that to disengage the clutch. Normally it's no more than an inch if that.

Where is this 5" of travel? Are you just moving the arm by hand?

Sorry it was me being an absolute idiot. It's the first time I've ever done something like this and panicked when it moved so much but this was by hand not on the pedal
