With the amount of mileage most of us put on theese cars...going for a softer friction material in the linings will probably do as much...just my 2c.
When i turn drums for people i put lining on them sized to fit the now ovesized drum and they are usually very happy with the braking power...you can´t more then lock the brakes...rest is about endurance...
That booster will probably work...but before installing make sure you can get the diapragm and any other parts that may need to be replaced...so theyre not unobtanium.
