Does anyone else have this problem, or is it just my car?

I have been driving a stick shift non stop since 1959. I currently have an X-Runner 6sp and I traded a 350 6sp for a new 370 6sp. I have had injected small block Chevrolet drag cars with stick shifts as well as Big blocks. I must say that the 370 has the touchiest Clutch that I have ever driven!! But, this "Appears to be Common" for the car. I thought at first it was me and old age (67) and time to give up the manuals. Then I went back to my dealer and told them I wanted to drive a "Z" on their lot. I took it out and guess what? It reacted the same way as mine. There was another thread on here that some have readjusted their pedal travel and have helped the problem. But so far I have not found the time to try it myself.
