I read this as asking "why do you need power brakes in a Cobra to begin with?"

That is correct. Refering to the power assist not vacuum pumps, canisters, etc.

Coincidentally, in the last couple of days I've posted pics of both my front and rear brakes in different threads. The fronts are Sierras on 12.2" rotors, the rears are 12" rotors with the outboard PBRs that went on the 94-97 Camaros. It's really a pretty simple, straight-forward system.
