You are missing the master cylinder, booster, 3-2 port conversion, prop valve plug and aftermarket adjustable prop valve

i would still upgrade the master cylinder now. You will brake better yes but wont feel it until you get the better cylinder. That 1/8" of bore make a big difference. I did the fronts at first like you are, and it felt like I had to mash the brakes to feel the difference.

If you are doing Cobra fronts, it would be a good idea to do it now
