ls1 brake booster options

I’m doing an s10 frame swap with an ls1 and wilwood brakes disc brakes front and rear
Just wondering if anyone has done this has any suggestions for the brake booster. It seems if I would eventually put a different cam in the motor it may not produce enough vacuum to go with a vacuum booster. So hydraulic may be the best bet?

One thing I forgot to state, is I do have a wilwood master cylinder with a proportioning valve. Is there a hydroboost for my application or will something out of another vehicle work?

Wilwood recommended abs power and they do have a hydroboost set up, but it’s $550. That seems awful steep but That may be what my options are with their master cylinder
