Rear Brake upgrade

I bought the Baer Front Track Kit and am looking for something to match in the back. What would you guys suggest as a cheaper alternative to the Baer Rear Kit and keep about the same performance. I'm pretty hard on brakes so I need something with some performance. (also looking into maybe a 9" swap so what would you suggest for that?)

There's a few routes you can go..do you currently have a disc or drum rear? Baer's rear Track kit is around $1215 from various vendors, I can build you the same rear kit for around $750, complete all new with braided lines standard for $500 less than a Baer price for the same brakes. Other than this type you can upgrade to LS1 rear brakes but the main hassle with those is hooking up the e-brake cables. I am currently having custom cables made to make this swap totally bolt on, they should be done in early January. PM me if you have any questions.
