Is the diagonal support brace attached to the front bolt hole of the
slave as well as firmly bolted to the side of the tranny? If not, you
will lose some of the travel of the slave.

If you remove the 2 bolts that hold the slave down to its bracket the
slave should rise up off the bracket quite a bit. Does it? How much?

The master can't cause the symptom of the pedal traveling farther when
you open the bleeder with the pedal already pushed as far as it would
go. That has to be a problem at the tranny end.

If the forks where the release bearing sits are worn too much then the
slave might run out of travel before the release bearing moves far
enough. This is a major wear area and I replace badly worn release
fork/shafts all the time. This can be a painful procedure but it has to
be done when the bearing seats get worn enough.
