Have a 66 starfire, drums all the way around, would LOVE to get some front discs.

anyone know if I can just swap over the front spindles from a 66 or 68 delta 88? (wasnt discs an option for 68 delta 88s?) Just wondering since the brakes faaade so badly, and more stopping power is always better in my book. also would i need to change proportioning valves? or anything else for that matter?

and yes I know technically drums are better but they heat up on my car and after some highway driving they fade like mad, and fade is worse in my opiniion.
