Anyone every convert to manual brakes?

I have a project car and basically will be replacing the whole system. I was looking at a manual brake setup. Is it comfortable for street and even some road track driving?

Older car doesn’t have abs, just looking at some options.

Yes I know I need a master/caliper/proportioning valve al configured to be compatible.

    Probably wrong. First gen mustangs rarely had power assist. It was an option but majority didn’t have it, at least on the early models.

    I’ve driven one and it did indeed feel scary AF. Like pressing wood together. I don’t know exactly the problem but I figured they can still threshold brake, it would just require a ton of pressure.

    I have an unassisted all drum 1970 corona which initially was also scary, but once you realize how hard you can brake it becomes much easier, but still a chore.
