I can say on my '90 Foxbody with discs all around and a Strange m/c it will not creep...tested to 3500rpm thus far with the Dynamic convertor atm. I have yet to move the pivot point on the brake pedal. No two-step installed yet.

I can stall my 94 GT street car to 3800 with the footbrake and factory rear disk brakes. No 2 step. Nothing but an organic pad and an inline brake bias adjuster. If you don't want to spend money for aftermarket rear discs, you can convert your Fox to factory rear discs using components from a 94-04 Mustang. Cheap and easy to do.

It depends and I know that sounds dumb. Look at basic hydraulic principles and you'll understand further how it will have an effect.
The smaller the MC bore the higher the pressure but smaller the volume. The larger the MC bore the less pressure but more volume. Now on the other end of the line the larger the size of the wheel cyl the higher the pressure exerted because there is more surface area exerting the pressure.
