1 to 2 turns is HUGE!!!!!! When i made my adjustments, a 1/4 to 1/2 turn was the difference between engaging right off the floor or way off the floor. I'd buy a new master cylinder if i were you. I think it was $74. I'm almost certain that turning the screw that far is what caused your problem. The combination of the stiff 2600 and the pump up effect causing too much hydraulic pressure thus snapping the fork when you pressed on it. Those forks are cast metal, so eventually enough pressure will cause what you experienced. Check your pressure plate while you're at it.
