Correct in your assumption that there is no other adjustment provided that the hydraulic throwout bearing is the proper fit.

To bleed: Get under the car and have someone in the drivers seat. Have that person pump the clutch 3 times and hold it in on the 4th time. While the clutch pedal is held in, crack the connection and the line will sputter and the pedal will go soft to the floor. As the line stops sputtering close the fitting. Repeat as necessary. I had to do this 10-12 times before all of the air was out of the line.

Oh yea...I suggest filling the Master Cylinder for the clutch to the "Max" line. This will allow for the 1/4 cup the you may lose while bleeding thus keeping your fluid level in between Min and Max.
