Well, I will qualify that by saying that I have four wheel disc on my truck, 1957. It has a 7/8" Wilwood master and power booster. You may want to look into what size would be best for a disc/drum combo. I attached a couple of web pages for you.

If you want to stay manual w/the disc-drum set up then it seems the best bet would most likely be a 1" bore master cylinder and then use a disc/drum prop valve and you should be all set.
