With the proper adjustment, the clutch disengages the tranny sooner, not later. Less pedal motion, not more.
Nope, sorry. Auto adjusting. No matter where the pedal height, as it is depressed, sequence of events is.

1. Reservoir valve closes.
2. Slave piston starts moving.

You can test this for yourself easily because all that is right on top. Just grab the end of the clutch fork and pull it forward. Watch the fluid level rise in the reservoir.

No adjustment required.
