Default Which Brakes are best?

I know this probablly has been asked a lot but I am looking to buy 14" brakes front and rear for my project and it looks like Baer are a lot more expensive than the Wilwoods,especially the rears,my question is are Baer any better and worth the difference in price.I am not going to be racing but want to fill up my open wheels better than the 12" & 13" brakes did.I really like the Baer silver calipers and need brakes if any dealers want to send me a quote,fronts are C6 and rears are Ford Torino new style ends w/2.36 offset,thanks for any help.

Brakes are over rated, they only slow you down.

I've had two Baer systems, 6P and 6S and the 6P's would be perfect for what you're doing. plus they look good too
