Tom, you've probably already read the brake sticky. But for all who might read your topic, the brake sticky (linked below) has good information and debate.

Pantera Brake Improvements

For the record, I'm quite happy with the decades old Wilwood brake system on my Pantera. It stops hard and fast. No nose dive, no rising tail, the car stays flat. No proportioning valve at all, neither in the front circuit or the rear circuit. No premature lock-up of the front or rear brakes. 12.75" race rotors (thick) and 4 piston calipers.

Whichever vendor put the system together did well. I just wish it had a parking brake. Maybe someday I'll do that project.
