Disc brake master cylinder question

What master cylinder works correctly with a disc brake conversion? I would like to run power brakes if possible, so actually what booster/master cylinder/line size combo works excellent? Thanks in advance for the help!

I got a wilwood dual mastercylinder from summitracing and then put a proportioning valve for the discs up front. No power though, but it works great and stops way better than it did.
