A Few Quick Questions:

Are the Blaster front drums mechanical or hydraulic? How well do they work? Is there a kit to upgrade to disk brakes? I thought about picking up a Blaster for a 2nd quad, but I hate drum brakes.

The are drum brakes.

But they work just fine. On mine if you lock them up they will bring the back end up in the air!

http://www.uslink.net/~philzie/bb1.html There is a good page about adding them to the back, I'm not sure if you can do it on the front.

I have hydro- discs on my Blaster. What you need is the hubs, discs, calipers, lines, and mastercylinder off of either a Warrior or a Banshee. Then you need to make some brackets for them to fit on. I'm going to try and make some brackets this summer to sell to people who want the discs.
