Try adjusting yours out and see if it will work or not, if they don't then grab SN95 one's

Maybe 20PSI, new computer, new 3" VAM, and some porting will make it faster

I believe you have to use the sn95 ends.

I just went to the wrecking yard and there were maybe 5-6 sn95s and all useable brakes and rear ends were gone. Pretty popular stuff.

Beleive you also ne the master cylinder, or at least the proportioning valve because of the rear disks.

Screw all that SN95 brake booster/master cylinder crap. Get the booster and MC from a '93 Cobra. No firewall mods, no BS.
