If you really want a good upgrade for the front go with the SN95 spindles and rotors. You'll have to convert to 5-lug, but I've been talking to the guy that made that web site and he's given me some very good information.
I noticed a difference with the 73mm SVO calipers (same as Lincoln Mark VII's) and Power Stop cross drilled rotors, but not a lot, but consider it to be a worthwhile mod. I also made some slide pin bushings at work instead of buying the Steeda ones.
I do know that with just the addition of the front 73mm calipers you can use the stock master cylinder if you convert it to a 2 port instead of 3. You won't need a proportioning valve unless you convert to rear discs.
There's a good book you can get from Holcomb, Jegs, and Summit called "Mustang Performance Handbook 2". It has a lot of info on upgrading the brakes, suspension, etc. Worth the money!
