Would an adjustable master more slave travel? Im suspecting my clutch might not entirely be releasing, I want to do the adjustable mastercylinder mod.
By cutting the bump stop, does this allow for more travel, and thus pushing the slave allittle further into the clutch releasing it more?

Not sure I'm understanding your question but... You need to shim your slave cylinder if you want to get the clutch to release more (by pushing the throwout bearing into the PP springs further).

Not sure. The slave has a mechanical limit. I'm not sure if pushing more fluid would extend it further or not.
It's been a while since I made my master cylinder adjustable. But from what I remember, it didn't buy me anything on the slave end. It only changed the reletive position of where the clutch engaged off the floor.

no it wouldnt because you will still have the same pedel travel no matter what, the only way to increase the movement of the slave is to increase the fluid that is being compressed.
