Castlemaine rod shop have a conversion where you use your existing stub axle, fit a later falcon disc rotor and girling (Holden) calipers. This is quite a good conversion as it does not effect steering geometry like some other conversions.
here is what they list is as and the link DB 23 Ford vent discs to XK-XP Falcons, Compact Fairlane (drum brake stubs) http://www.rodshop.com.au/chassis.htm

Why not come along to a club meeting (7pm last Tues of the month at TCB Tavern, Oxley Rd. Oxley) have a chat with club members who have done the conversions, there are quite a few ways, I owned a car that had the a conversion that failed; I bought the vehicle with it, so I couldn't say if it was component failure or poor installation. Cheers.
