clutch free play and return spring question

[qmdv]

39 trans in an original 32 frame and pedal assembly. When the clutch arm is not hooked to the linkage the throw out bearing is about an inch from the clutch fingers. After all linkage is hooked up and adjusted about how far should it be. Also I have a new clutch return spring and brake return spring. One is stronger than the other and I forgot witch was witch
