Good to hear your setup works good.
What was your stopping distances pre and post the conversion? Did you see meaningful improvement?

Everyone should note that generally, disc brakes need MORE line pressure for the same braking force application. That is all variable with piston sizes, drum/rotor diameters, brake pad/shoe material, etc... The advantage of disc is linear application, better pedal feel, better heat dissipation, etc.
Early brakes were drum brakes because they required less force to get the required stopping power (pre vacuum assist)...
