Default Drum to disk brake conversion

I am ready to convert my car from all drums to all disk brakes. Any suggestions for a kit. I would prefer to get a kit that has everything so I know it is all set up to work together. Don't really want to experiment with brakes.

Thanks John
Its a 1970 Nova I/SA

I had great luck with Master Power Brake

you may want to consider upgrading your drum brakes

Strange makes front and rear kits that are light and work very well, Wilwood race brakes are good too. Just two suggestions.

What front Wilwood brakes are people with heavier cars using? The race ones I have found all top out at 2800 pounds.

Thanks John

I've got the strange ones on my Nova and one of our Oldsmobiles. Really like them.
