I like to have it where the clutch will grab with the pedal about halfway out.

The way I do it is to put the rear in the air and on jackstands. Then get the cable about as tight as it feels it should be. Then start the car, put it in gear and slowly let the pedal out. You'll be able to tell when it is fully engaged. Make adjustments as necessary. Then go for a drive. If it catches at the very top of the pedal, then the cable is too tight. If it catches at the very bottom then the cable isnt tight enough
