Like has been said, there are advantages and disadvantages to both systems.

I've never seen a big truk do a panic stop without locking up multiple tires. In my personal experiene with the disc brake swap is that disc are easier to modulate near the limit of traction. My disc also stop straighter, really notice this when I'm pulling the boat.
I'll keep my disc brakes and my computerized efi engine with double the power and mpg than the larger carbed engine that was in it.
