You might be able to play with pedal feel by using larger or smaller bore masters.

the brakes work good but the pedal does not move a lot. I forgot to bleed the roll control and it did not hold it. so im going to bleed it maybe tomorrow and see if it can hold it. the only thing I don't like is the master cylinder is at a angle. because its the way its made. so I may change to a after market it one. just going to try it at the track first.

I went to a aerospace master cylinder it says it a 60/40% master cylinder. I don't under stand how it does it. it is a bigger bore if I remember right than the stock one. I just need to bleed it again. need to clean up the wires.
