I also wonder whether your master cylinder might not be fully returning every time - it really doesn't take much lost motion to mess things up.  Some prefer to use 7/8" slave cylinders which give a bit more travel at the cost of slightly increased pedal effort.

Wondering if this should read " 7/8" " MC. I think this is the one I used. For a Landy. Only £10 inc postage. Stopped the griding, going into reverse.

No, it's the slave. The standard GT6 / Vitesse 2L fit is a 1" bore slave but the 1600 Vitesse used a 7/8" bore. Fitting the latter to a GT6 will increase slave travel for a given pedal movement, at the cost of a heavier pedal. Enlarging the master would also work, of course.
