Correct Master Cylinder to use with BB Upgrade

I have four wheel disc brakes already, but they are the small stock stuff. If I upgrade to the larger brakes front and rear, realistically I will need a larger bore master cylinder and posibly a proportioning valve off of a different year Camaro.

What year parts would be the best for my purposes? 90-92 Z28? B4C Police? 1LE? etc......

It's going to depend on which brakes you go with because you'll need to at least figure out piston area on the calipers.
