    Granada/Monarch discs up front and late 90s Exploder discs out back, then a Geo brake booster... There is also a plastic/aluminum dual circuit master you can use that is compact and light. Forgot what vehicle it is sourced from, it may also be a Geo part.
    The Geo stuff is tiny and light, perfect for our tight engine compartment, and the swap pages I have seen online seem to show that the parts are almost bolt ons... except for some custom line bending.
    My uncle has some 70 model Cougar discs on the front of his Mav, so I suppose those swap too. He said they were direct bolt on.
