I have the standard mustang II brakes in the front but with performance pads and mustang drum brakes in the back. These are power brakes. The car stops amazingly well. Easy to lock up all 4 wheels with little effort. Hell, the car only weighs 2,400 lbs, it is easy to stop on a dime. I think with a car this light, you don't need fancy aftermarket performance brakes on the street. Only if you are racing at the track and have to do constant/repeated high speed braking.
