Hi hhouse and welcome to FTE

3-4" of pedal free play is too much.
The bleeder screw for the clutch is on the side of the bellhousing, just above where the clutch fluid line goes in. Usually you can gravity bleed it. Just open the bleeder and let it run while keeping an eye on the master cylinder to make sure there is lots of fluid in it.
Make sure when you fill the master cylinder that you remove the rubber cup/gasket from inside. Lots of people fill that up and wonder why their clutch doesnt work.
