I would recommend finding 32-34 front drums. Your Model A wheels will bolt right on. Set them up just as you would Model A front brakes and they will work great.
I have them on one of my cars and have helped several other club members install them on their cars.
On my car, I also installed '32 rear brakes but they are not bolt on and require a lot of work to make everything fit. On future cars, I would only use 32 brakes on the front and Model A with cast iron drums on the rear.
My opinion,
