1974 911 in need of help

I have a 1974 911 with steel turbo flares/ 16inch fuchs and I would like to to upgrade my brakes with one of the bolt on upgrades. I understand that depending on the model ( 911 vs 911s, 911sc) your options are limited without having to upgrade the struts to a newer type. ( I am correct?). what are my upgrade options. do you recommend a larger master cylinder?..

Also I am having a problem with wheel wobble. The wobble was the worse around 60mph and as I aproached 70 it would reduce but not completley resolve. I changed the wheel bearing ( front) which did not make a difference. After lowering the car I had the front and rear alignment done and had the tires balanced by a reputable shop. It helped eliminate 95 % of the wobble . after approx 800 miles of driving, the wobble returned. Do you think my ball joints are worn out? would a turbo tie rod upgrade help correct my wheel wobble?

I have a 1974 911T but I cannot say that I am experiencing any wheel wobble. I do remember when I got my Fuchs balanced the mechanic was telling me that during forging their may be a slightly higher amount of material in one location which leads to more weight to counterbalance. That happened to one of my front wheels. I would check the wheels and balance next before digging into the ball joints or tie rods. Good luck
