Can I use any of my existing factory components...booster, master cylinder? Or do I need to change EVERYTHING? Obviously, I will need to change spindles and proportion valve.
The car is is a '70 Malibu.

All I changed on my 69 elcamino was the master cylinder, the proportioning valve, used the stock drum spindles and got the baer front disk package. I think that baer makes their kit to fit the drum spindles but most others do not. So you might need new spindles if you get another kit.

If you want to use OEM style brakes, you can only reuse the booster. Don't know how much those Baer brakes are, but it's probably cheaper to buy a complete std disc brake kit but without the booster. BTW, doesn't hurt to change the booster on a 35 year old car either.
