Brake pedal height question

Good point:D (slapping myself on forehead)

I adapted rear disk brakes from 80s Lincoln Versailles to a Ford 9"

The piston had a special tool and a procedure to set the pad properly.

Don't know anything about the kit you used but might still look at the rear adjustment if it has built in e brake.
Watched a YouTube video on changing the rear brake pads on a cobra mustang. They used a special tool that turned the caliper piston as opposed to using a C clamp. Seems that the cobra caliper piston ratchets as it moves out. But all they did was spin the piston in to make room for the new thicker pads, no real ‘adjustment’. Is there more to it?
