Rich,
I agree with you about stopping. The limiting factor is
probably the tires. If you're locking up the rear brakes,
it a sign of imbalance in
pressure between the disc and drum brakes and a single
servo. Each wants a different pressure for the same
braking, and the drums take
the least pressure to lock. What the car is missing is a
front/rear proportioning valve, in lieu off twin master
cylinder with different bores.
These are available, adjustable, and fairly simple to
install and adjust. The early Mustang's used them with
combination brakes, and a
few companies make new ones.
