Be sure to have the correct residual pressure valves in front and rear of master cyl.
Drums use a 8-10 lb valve and disc use 2 lb. These keep the brakes back from moving too far away to act.
Proportioning valve directs more of master cyl pressure to front or rear brakes depending where you need most braking. That may take experimentation with slicks versus small front tires.. I bet none is needed.
