N-n-n-necropost!
Just wanted to chime in and tell you that I did this today on my Cosworth supercharged GT86 and it seems to have made a big difference. I was even able to do it by myself, just barely able to squeeze my hand through the engine bay to the clutch slave cylinder. In my case, I was able to twist the clutch electrical switch pretty much all the way back and twist the master cylinder rod all the way towards the cylinder, while still being able to manually push the slave cylinder and see the clutch fluid rise in the reservoir. This has extended the clutch pedal travel A LOT, which is somewhat of a downside.
Is it possible to damage the master cylinder assembly by over-extending the rod travel?
Thanks GTB! I'll try to remember to report back in a week or so.
