I don't recall the Siera having a brake bias in its standard form.

I tend to agree with others, if the brakes are standard from the donor the bias should be OK unless the weight distribution was vastly different. The only difference should be the reduced effort in terms of pedal pressure.

I still have standard disc front and drum rear and don't intend to change that with the new servo.

I think the only time a problem could develop is if the rear brakes were upgraded without considering the front. For instance if you had a standard Sierra disc/drum setup and you upgraded to discs at the rear without upgrading the standard 240mm discs on the front.

A straight lift of the donor brakes should be fine.

That of course is just guess work and could be complete tosh!!
