Wondering what kind of brakes are people either have now or planning on getting. Just trying to get other people's opinion because I do want to upgrade my brakes to better than stock. Thanks!!

svo fronts are 73mm piston calipers, same as the Lincoln mark VII but with a 4 lug setup. Not the biggest improvement over the stock mustang setup, but its a little better.

having the svo rear disc brakes are always a plus over stock drums.
