A typical non-boosted brake uses a second class levered brake pedal. The Easamatic brake pedal has no lever action because your foot is pressing directly onto the master cylinder rod. To make your idea work you need to relocate the master cylinder and modify the pedal arm to achieve leverage.

Oh, and incidentally if the Treadle-Vac was relocated to achieve the same effect the result would be the world's touchiest system because that thing provides a lot of boost when it's working right.
