Sliding or floating??

Gents,

I have hit a conundrum. I have a set of front floating calipers from my 80 Euro, and a set of front fixed calipers from my 81 US. I do realize, that the floating calipers require a 3.8 boost ratio where as the sliding caliper requires a 3.0 internal ratio - but does anybody have an idea of the pros and cons of either brake system? What would you guys choose? Of course, rear brakes are sliding calipers on both cars. And although I would like a big brake conversion, legislator and sticker price kind of rules that out here in Denmark.

Thanks
K.c.
