How far does the piston on a master cylinder need to travel? I can understand it being a lot smaller than pedal travel, but how far is it?
I also expect it will be different depending on whether it's for brakes or a clutch?
My floor mounted setup, the brakes travel was about 15mm,
Clutch to the floor was around 25mm

Stick it in a vice and push a screwdriver in the end till it bottoms out. There's no one size, they come in all sort of sizes. If you get the part number off the side and stick it in google you may be very lucky and get a spec but I've never seen that and would much prefer to measure it myself.
