All adjustments should be done on a warm transmission. Free play is measured by pulling the clutch pedal toward the seat. 15mm-20mm max.
Travel is correct when reverse can be selected with out grinding. Travel is adjusted by moving the plate on the floor board.
Free play on a '74 is measured by pushing the pedal down, not pulling it up. That method perhaps applies to earlier cars (?) As for selecting reverse without grinding, I have no problem. I'll check the adjustment while warm - I always have done it while cold.
