When depressing the pedal are you getting the right amount of movement at the slave cylinder end?
Genuine or aftermarket parts?
What was the original issue that caused you to replace the clutch?

When I had my first clutch replacement done I too had a similar issue. I then proceeded to adjust the clutch pedal and the slave cylinder linkage to the Lotus Service Notes specs and all worked well til the next clutch was needed
