I suppose it depressed about three mm. The previous PP had a more distinctive cone shape before and after, but it's been three years since I had to R & R the trans, so memory not too clear.
Will have to do a test as best I can

So we don't agree; maybe, if the fingers end up flat after tightening, it still can be normal, but if they are pointing inwards a bit, it is not correct. You can made a decision by measuring how much the fingers are moving inward when tightening the bolts : if it is more than 3 mm it is not correct and the feel in the clutch pedal won't be normal eather.Marcel.Van: "fot" <fot at autox.team.net>

Brian;All perfectly normal.Just be sure that the throwout bearing is compatible with the “fingers.” If the fingers are straight the throwout bearing face should be rounded. If the fingers have a crook in them (bent) then the throwout bearing face should be flat.Enjoy your new clutch!Phil Gott

Hey Friends
just installed a new to me (rebuilt) laycock PP and a new clutch disc. As I tightened the PP the fingers ended up pretty much flat across, no longer peaked. So when the hydraulics is engaged the throw out will press the clutch fingers deflecting inward (invert from when on the bench). Makes me uncomfortable / doesn't seem right. 
Normal / Correct? 
am hoping to put the trans back in tomorrow afternoon, comments please

ThanksBrian
