A good book I've been using for a lot of calculations is Paved Track Stock Car Technology, Steve Smith. It says you should have a min of 60% of your braking done by the front brakes. Measure your caliper piston diameters and it's all based on pedal ratios which you have and P=F /A. Typical input is 100 lbs of leg force in a panic stop.
