Likely fix would be to adjust the MC push rod. Not being familiar with your equipment I can't detail the procedure. However I can tell you there should be a provision to adjust the length of the rod. In your case, shortening the rod would give you the desired effect. It shouldn't be much. You will be pleased.
This is good advice. You do not have enough "free play"in the pedal. Encountered this years ago when I had put hydraulic brakes on a Model A. Also make sure you have a good strong return spring.
