How much lower what? The hole on the pedal arm or the pedal itself from shorter throw?

Careful that you didn't mess up the rod geometry. If it is putting a side load on the piston, it will wear out quickly.

What bore MC are you running? Chances are it is too big and swapping to a smaller bore MC will result in longer pedal travel and more modulation of the clutch.
