Rear drum to PBR disc

I got a rear end from an 89 GTA with the PBR disc brakes, I have an 87 GTA with drum brakes.
Do I need to replace both the master cylinder and proportioning valve or just the valve?

Just the prop valve, and some say you dont need to. I personally say you do. The master that you have will work fine.
