One thing I did on mine, was go to a smaller bore master cylinder. When I bought the car, I believe it had a 1" and a 7/8" and I put on 2 5/8" ones. The smaller bore increases pedal travel, but also increases line pressure. I have non-power brakes. If you have the room, I'd also try to increase your pedal ratio.
