Try adjusting the pushrod at the master cylinder.
I have had this happen (on the way to SS03) by replacing replacing the
calipers just prior to leaving.
It will only need a 1/2 a turn or so. You may have either switched
clutch/brake pushrods when rebuilding the master or maybe new parts make
up for years of slack in the system and it needs to be adjusted.
I think you need a 3/8" and a 1/2: open end wrench, loosen the lock nut
on the rod, turn the rod with a 3/8 wrench, try it and be sure to
tighten up the lock nut.
