for the 66 you use the same drum spindles for disc brakes so it's an easy conversion, all you need is the caliper mounting brackets - $50 bucks each, calipers - ?, rotors - $85 bucks each, rotor splash shield - $40 bucks each, proportioning valve - $60 bucks, master cylinder - ? going the catalog route, or you can even try your local parts store for the consumables, rotors, pads, hoses, etc.

Are you going to keep the EFI or are you going to run a carb on it?

Even if it's a 6 cylinder I can use the same spindles?

No, only if it was a 67+ car. You will need V8 spindles, suspension, and steering components.
