please HELP!!!!!!!!!!! got questions

hi need a little help ive been reading alot on the brake board about prop.valve mods and drum to disc conversions but still have a few questions. heres what im going to atempt to do, i have a 83 camaro w/ a 91 firebird rear end (drum) and i want to install the rear disc set up from a 95 camaro w/ 11.5 inch rotors and pbr alum. calipers.
1. will my 15 in cragers (15by10) fit over this set up or do i have to go up in wheel size?

2. these calipers have the bracketry for the e-brake can i remove this becouse i dont even have an e- brake( this is not a street diven car , just drag strip)the bracketry doesnt look like i need it.

3. can i do the same prop. valve mod on my drum prop. valve as is done on the rear disc prop valve, (the mod that increses pressre to the rear discs) where you take out the spring and install a new plug or do i need a rear disc prop.valve to do this mod.

4. also im thinking of installing a line lock if i could get a website on where to find out about installing this and prices would be great.
and finilly i would like to thank those who respond to this post in advance thanx mike.
