Would i be able to use the master off of the thunderbird? And do I just use the same lines that are going to the drums?

I just picked up a turbocoupe rear tonight($175), and I had some of the same questions.

So as far as I see it here I will need:
1.Emergency brake cables for a 93 cobra (part #?)
2.A 2 port master cylender (what cars are they off of?)
3.A proportioning valve from summit (part #?)

Is there a need to reroute the brake lines?
The control arms and shocks bolt right up?

How much better do they stop?

i bought a rear out of a sn95 to put into my 93 hatch. i also have the summit proportioning valve. my breaks work like a dream. the pedal effort for me don't bother me so i like the stup that i have. but eventually i want to upgrade to the cobra brake so when i do that, that's when i'll get the master cylinder conversion and the brake booster ALL OUT OF THE SN95. but for now i like my brakes the way they are.
