Default Advice needed on Power brake booster

Okay so I am in the process of putting things back together on my 67 and first up is a power brake booster. As of now the car has manual drum brakes all around. I plan on putting power disc brakes up front and add rear disc at a much later time. I know I could just pick up a power brake disc kit online like SSBC http://www.ssbrakes.com/commerce/det....cfm?nPID=8306. However I won't need at the parts at this exact moment since I also will be replacing all of the steering and suspension as well.

Sorry. The question is I need recommendations on what is a good power brake booster to purchase. I would like to buy the power brake booster with master cylinder separate from the rotors and everything else.

That kit is very tempting but I want to go with kit that's better than stock. However at this point I am only looking for a good power brake booster that will be able to perform well with an high perf. brake upgrade and will work with rear disc as well. Maybe this one? Not sure....

What are the pros/cons of swap1 vs swap2 vs swap3? Everyone always goes right for the granada kit.
