New Clutch Master/Slave Cylinder

I recently had both the clutch master and slave cylinders replaced in a BJ8. Now the clutch must be pressed completely to the floor before it engages, then grabs right off the floor. The car is very hard to drive smoothly now. I noticed the last master cylinder had an adjustment on it, but the new one from Moss does not.

Are there any suggestions on how to adjust the clutch, so that it grabs a little higher off the floor, making shifting etc, smoother and making for a more enjoyable driving experience?

Ideally, I don't want to remove the clutch master cylinder again. Is there something I can buy to adjust the pedal feel?
 
It is possible you still have air in the system. is there a lot of free play when you depress the peddle.
does pumping the peddle make it any better
