You do need to limit the travel as the clutch master has a specified range of motion. Exceed that and you can/will damage it, possibly the clutch or the release bearing. In some cases the floor acts as the stop, just make sure to measure the stroke and make sure it's in spec with what the clutch master manufacturer wants. Otherwise you need to fab up a mechanical stop.

Mark your clutch rod where it goes through the firewall with the pedal up in it's resting place. Then make a mark at the max distance listed with your clutch master, say 1.2" for example. Slowly push the clutch pedal down and see if the pedal will go past the second mark before bottoming out. If it does you need a pedal stop to limit that distance to the clutch master specs.
