Larry,

If you meant to have dual servos, or no servos, the answer changes.  
Drums and disc require different pressures in most cases. somehow Tiger 
sized things for one pressure. Changes could well unbalance this and 
lockup an axle brake set.

Look at Larry Paulick's marvelous articles for pictures of his brakes.  
He has not written about them yet, but will.

You should still consider dual servos to save your leg.  The Le Mans 
Tigers do exactly this.  Pictures in Darrell's articles.
