Default Brake bias

From studying the build diaries, I see a wide range of brake rotors, caliper types, engine weights, and I would think, front/rear brake loadings.
Has any one found it necessary to get into brake bias adjustment from the seat.
In the Cobras there can be a 90lb difference between a cast iron 427 side-oiler and a new Shelby aluminium(I spelt that correctly, eh?) block, and with the weight so far forward it makes a difference in the mountain corners.
I have seen set-ups with dual master cylinders connected with a balance bar, and dash mounted needle valve adjusters in the hyd lines.

Also, any experiences with gearbox to driveshaft to diff universal angles, torque.v. diff wind-up, not a problem with BMW diff mounts?
