Need help with c10 brake upgrade

[surlyjoe]

Looking for advice on my 71 c10. I have been reading a few of Ron Sutton's posts on brakes and how to build a balanced system and have a few questions. This truck is a budget build for the most part. Forgive me on some of the details as I have just been given the green light on the project.

My truck is 71 long bed, hoping to convert to short bed.
Coils in the rear. 4-6 drop, upgrade sway bar and track bar, good ps box. Basically upgraded stock.
I am not sure on the weight of the truck. It will have an ls of some description. ~3500lbs?
17 or 18 inch wheels. Performance tires but not extreme.
Main use will be as a driver, it might see an autocross once a year.
My goal is to have a nice driving truck that does everything well.



My current plan for brakes is to use stock later year 12" with d52 caliper. Stock caliper or maybe the willwood ones. For the rear I am open to options but considering the willwood floating caliper setup. I can use whatever master cylinder works best for the system and I am leaning toward power brakes to make it user friendly for other drivers.

What is a good front rear bias for a truck?
If using the 12" fronts described above which d154 rear caliper will work best with the system?
What brake number can this system achieve with optimal master cylinder and booster?

Thanks
Joe
