Before we all go and buy new master cylinders wouldn't it be worth:
1. Working out how much the push rod can move when the brake pedal is flat on the floor.
2. If, in this position there would still some operating rod visible on the master cylinder, then it would be safe to shorten it.
However I guess that shortening it may not be that easy. From its color I guess that the operating rod is made of a high carbon steel. Will probably need a cutting disc in an angle grinder.
