I was going to do a little research before posting about this but before you pull the tranny it might be worth investigating. I installed a clutch in my Euro TD and when I was done and tried it out the clutch would engage when the pedal was barley off the floor. I adjusted the eccentric and it helped a little. Turns out my clutch master push rod was too short. Could it be you are having the opposite problem? Both clutch master cylinders in the pics are exactly the same except for the length of the push rod. The difference in length is 6mms.
I have installed several clutches and never new there was any difference in masters. I don't believe the early and late slaves can not be interchanged.
Actually there is a difference, The long push rods have a BLACK plastic top and the short ones have a white top...hummmm
