How to adjust brake pedal linkage

I had my master cylinder replaced, and when I got the car back, I noticed that the brake pedal has quite a bit more travel before it engages. I talked with someone about this, and he thought that the shop probably didn't measure the tolerances between all of the pushrods when they installed the new MC.

Does anyone know what these tolerances should be? How about a procedure for checking/changing these tolerances?

That's a helpful link, but the problem I have is not the height of the brake pedal (which is the same as it always has been), but the amount of travel in the pedal before the brakes engage.

Is there some other linkage, like between the MC and the booster, that needs to be checked? Or can the pedal travel be affected by link you gave me?
