I was thinking that when I replaced all those clutch parts that the clutch would feel lighter.

Suggestion
FYI, when my clutch was redone this year the pedal seemed a little higher (actually reset the seat a touch to compensate) but the action was not stiffer.

I would take a look at the boost spring, lay on your back under the drivers side, depress the clutch pedal with your right hand hold a flash light with the left you will see a small cylinder (1.5 inch by inch rigth above you attached thethe clutch pedal assy, You should see a blue sping, at this point use your left hand to touch the spring, you can tell when they are broken.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hi folks,
I just had my clutch, throw out bearing, pressure plate and fly wheel replaced. However, my clutch pedal is really high and much stiffer than I would expect.
Could this be a problem with the master cylinder or something else?
Thanks!

I would bet that the stiffer pressure plate is just confusing your regular "feel" of the clutch and the older boost spring. Similar to how you know when you go into a room but can't remember what you went in for? Same ****.
It's also how dogs feel all the time.
Being higher? I don't know about that part.
I'm sorry, but I found this comment hilarious! Though I doubt I will be laughing as hard 20+ years down the line if I find myself in that position under the dash. Glad you made it out.
I don't know... when I first bought the C4S the clutch was really feather soft and much lower, and the car was brand new.
