Is this 5 lug conversion kit good?

You'll be happier in the end if you save up and go with the SN95 conversoin. My advice is to go big from the get go.. be patient and wait for deals.. go with cobra brakes from the start. Or if you get a deal on 94-98 or 99-04 brakes, that'll get you going sooner, but Cobra brakes would be worth the wait IMO.

I'm just going for the sn95 front brake for now and keep the drums cause of budget issues,i'll be keeping my eyes peeled for deals too. I'm sure sometime in the end of Nov i'll be able to get it all done. I know now i need to upgrade the master cylinder,but if i keep the rear drums do i have to upgrade the brake booster as well?I'm also worried about the 275/40/17 tires i have on 2 of my bullit rims that i have not fitting right in the back. Some people say it will rub and some don't,i know the quads have to be flipped and maybe adjusting the tailpipes my car won't be lowered when i put them on But i plan on lowering it about a month and a half after i'm done with the 5 lug conversion,so i'll just have to see from my own experience with that before i go and lower it. If anything i'll just sell the tires to my friend and get 245 wide for the rear or maybe 255.

Your booster is fine. You can keep your master cylinder if you're leaving the drums in back and just converting to the standard 94-95 calipers/rotors in front. Braking won't be affected much. That's how mine is right now. A '93 cobra MC conversion and an adj. prop valve would help out a lot though. The 275's are going to be a tight fit out back. You'll probably have to lose the quads. Get some control arms and you'll be fine.

If you are going to do rear discs in the near future, I would most denfintely change the Booster while you are in there, that way you dont create extra work for yourself! Get a 93 Cobra Booster Remanfactured, not too expensive, and it has the same stud pattern and threads as your Fox Car does.

How much will the remanufactured 93 cobra booster run and where can i get it at?

The only company that does is is called Cardon or Cardone I cant remember which, you should be able to get it from Advanced Auto or Autozone. I think they are about $90.
