Default Adjusting clutch fingers

Getting ready to bench adjust clutch.
Original pressure plate, original flywheel, replacement disc (measures .380”)

Reading most of the threads on this subject, as well as watching YouTube videos, I see the dimensions of 5/8”, 11/16”, 3/4” used.
Les Andrews book says 5/8”

Considering that the disc is new, I’m planning to use the 5/8” dimension.
Is this correct?

Thanks
Ken
