How necessary is it to change the proportionary valve and the master cylinder?

The easiest way to do the swap would be to find a complete rear axle assembly out of a V8 4th Gen... that gets you the disc brakes and the limited slip diff if you don't already have it.

I'm not familiar with the V6 brakes... does the car have ABS?

Got most of the answers I need, I am gettign a complete rear axle. Yes I have ABS, so does this one. I found out that the disc rears and drum rear cars used the same proportionary valve and master cylinder so I'm all set on that. Thanks anyway tho
