It's not about the number of pistons, but the total piston area, that matters. You need to balance front and rear piston area based on a lot of factors. I would find the piston area for your Alcons and do some research. I know ROn Sutton has a big thread about this on the "other" forum.
I think the Baer Alcon brakes are as good now as they were 10+years ago.
