Sped 2+ & SMFW Engagement Issue

So I just finished installing my Spec 2+ non-sac clutch and steel SMFW. The clutch engages at the top of the pedal extension. It seems the clutch is not fully engaging though because if I give it anything more than 5-10% throttle it revs (slips) up. I believe as the clutch breaks in the pedal would normally move up correct? So in my case only get worse? Any advice or ideas? Worse case scenario; can I use the stock TO bearing (shorter, so effectively shift pedal engagement lower) with the Spec clutch? Regardless, I will be calling SPEC tomorrow...

Edit: Also note how my SPEC TO bearing sits flush while the stock once can pivot on the lever arm.

Pics from the install... I have more but I will save those for the build thread once I get it running well:
