On my car the PO had fitted the .75 in. master cylinder which seems to work
fine with my non-power drum brakes. The pedal effort is not up to modern
standards but not excessive.

If I were to switch to the 5/8 cylinder would my pedal effort get less or
more? 

I'm thinking it would be less because I'd be moving the piston further to
move the shoes the same distance.
