Got a 91 and Im putting a rear end from a turbocoupe in my car the car. Originally it a 4 cylinder but has the v8 brakes on front and will have rear disc in back....Question is, is tomorrow Im going to replace the MC and the power brake booster. What MC should I get that will work with no modifications and what brake booster should I go with? also if I dont change the rear diff out tomorrow will the new MC work with the drum brakes as well?

I swapped a TC rear w/discs into mine. I used the master and booster out of a '95 Mustang GT/V6. Also, I don't see why your stock m/c wouldn't work with drums. You might have to install an adjustable prop valve, but you're gonna have to do that anyway when you run 4-wheel discs. All the info you'll need is right here.......................87-93 Mustang 5.0 Brake upgrade pages. Improve your 60-0 times!

It should. You'll have a bigger bore size which means it's pumping a larger volume of fluid into the wheel cylinders, which means your pedal travel will be alot less, but I'm sure you'll get used to it.
