Brake or Clutch spring?

How far can you lift up on the pedal?

My 67 dart I can lift up maybe an inch before I get resistance
It’s rather loose right now cause it needs tightened down and also the little rubber band gasket thing that goes around the end. The pedal lifts higher than Id expect but gets stopped by the brake switch. Sloppy right now until I get a new rubber. I was just concerned before I put it together wrong, so I consulted the a body pros. Thanks for the imput!
