brake swap questions


ive got an 01 mustang gt it has stock brakes as of this moment, the plan is to swap cobra brakes on to it but im not buying a kit. reason im not gonna buy a kit is because ive got access to most parts i would need from other mustangs to do it i just need to know what can help with the swap and what i will need to buy new.

my first area of concern is the brackets that hold the calipers for both front and back.... can i just use mach 1 or bullit brackets? im not completely sure but the used 13" cobra brakes to right? if so then those would bolt right up to a gt as well

my second area of concern is the system itself, with a swap in calipers and lines would the stock gt hydroboost still operate it uninhibited?

any help yall can provide would be... well helpfull

thanks

Bullitt and Machs have the same brakes, the only difference is the logo on the caliper. So yes all parts from bullitts and machs will work on the cobra brake swap

Yes, it'll work just fine.
