What type of brakes for front?

I just did a rear end swap to a disk posi from a 2000 z28. I'm just curious what kind of brakes I should upgrade to in the front to pair with the bigger rear brakes. I believe it's a 12 inch rotor and has duel piston pbrs. My car is also an 87 firebird use to have rear drums.

I would go with the '98 - '02 Camaro brakes for the front. May be able to get them from the same car that the rear came from.

My friend is getting a 99 firebird with an ls to use in his 4th generation he said he would pretty much give me the front brakes as he only wants the motor so I'll get those from him.
