Default Brake Problems.. HELP

I just upgraded my brakes to 87-93 spindles and calipers that i had laying around...When i slam on the brakes the pedal stops halfway down and feels like a rock... what could that be? It slow me down but not as much as it used to. Could it be the master cylinder isnt strong enough? If so where could i get a direct bolt in that is more powerful?

I've heard that if you don't change the master cylinder when you do the upgrade that will happen. I guess it's true
