I have a 69 Nova w/all 4 drum brakes and no power brakes. It was an original 307 but I have a 350 sb in the car now and i need 2 get a normal set of brakes 4 the car. I was think just putting discs in front and leaving the drums in back and gettin a power booster. Do you guys have any suggestions about a brand for this kit? Thanks 4 your help.

I would go with a wilwood conversion kit, but in the long run thats going to cost some $$$.Yet, you could buy a cheap one, then replace the rotors and calipers with what you really want. Its up to you on how much money you want to spend.

Disk brakes in the front and drum in the back is perfectly fine.
There are many kits like this on ebay:

You can buy your own booster and lines and save a good chunk of money compared to the 800 dollar kits in jegs.com and yearone.com
