Default Brake questions

I am swapping 5 lug rotors onto the 88. It is a 4 banger car now but I have stock 90 lx 50 spindles for it. I am getting 5 lug Lincoln Rotors, 73mm SVO calipers and high perf pads and braided stainless lines. Do I need to also swap the brake booster from the 90 model as well or will the 4 banger booster be enough? This is a drag car so brakes on the big end are VERY important. I also have the 8.8 to go for the rear and the brakes are bigger on that end so Im thinkin I need the bigger booster but I want to make sure before Ido alot of unnecessasary swapping. Also when I put the 5 lug rotors on the spindles, I just need to get new bearings and seals for a 90 model Mustang Lx 5.0 since the spindles are from that car or do I need something special from a Lincoln.

Thanks
Brad
