For reasonable pedal pressures without a servo you need a smaller bore tandem cylinder than the original Ford a lot of people have used the Fiat
124 cylinder.

Hi,
My car passed SVA with mk2 Escort non servo tandem cylinder. I had no problems with pedal pressure. The pedal box and pedal were made to give the same
leverage ratio as the Escort doner car.

I use the standard Toyota MR2 Mk1 cylinder on the Furore, just remove the servo, can lock the front brakes up with little effort.
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.
