Thanks for the reply Mike. Really useful. Much appreciated.
Think I'll give the conversion a miss for now. Chris, the guy I bought the car from, was kind enough to supply a full set of shoes and pistons, plus front discs and pads, so if it's only a cosmetic difference, I will keep the standard setup. To be honest, the brakes are as good, if not better than the Chimaera and Wedge I had.

Hi Andy.
Hope the S is running well!
To be honest I think the standard drums are more than adequate for a normal S. The discs do look better but I doubt you'd feel much difference on the road.
I'm beginning to agree with the above opinions on an S over a Chimaera, maybe I should have kept it!!!! Chris.
