Exclamation Brake Upgrades ‘69 442

Looking for suggestions to improve the brakes on my 69 442. The previous owner swapped the drums with disks, and I installed a new master cylinder. They work, but it takes a while to stop.

I found that rear disk instead of drum was a huge improvement in pedal feel. The rear only provides about 30% breaking but significantly improved the pedal feel. Also braided lines.
