<div dir="auto">There might be some room to move the friction
point by adjusting the actuating fork at the slave cylinder. I
seem to recall that if there's too much space before the fork
(or tang, also called) starts to apply pressure to the slave
piston, the pedal's action stays closer to the floor.
Conversely, if the adjusting nuts place it too tight, the pedal
action remains up high like you're reporting.

<div dir="auto">There's a further risk under your conditions of
never fully releasing the clutch, so it's worth your time to
move the lockdown point of the main nut (with the curved side
that rests in the tang) and its locknut, and see if that
relocates the action.</div>
