You could swap out the front calipers for one of the aftermarket D52 options with a smaller piston area, thereby reducing the front brake bias relative to the rear, giving you a more balanced system.

Not that there aren't other options, however Wilwood has a 2-piston D52 caliper option with 6.28 square inches of piston area or their GM-III calipers with either 4.45 or 5.98 square inches piston area that you might consider. The D52's have bushings and are a bit more streetable, however only offer a ~7% reduction in piston area, whereas the GM-III's would be a more substantial difference.

I don't know of any rear caliper interchange options with larger piston areas, but that's not to say they don't exist.

Most hydroboost installations run a 1.125" bore MC or larger depending on the application, calipers, etc. I don't have a specific suggestion for MC, maybe someone else will, but your first order of business should be to balance your system, since nothing at the firewall will correct for that.
