That was quite a confusing read. If you have an LX with 4 wheel disc and it's not swapped you should have ABS as it was an option. Otherwise you should have drums on the rear.
The EX and V6 use a 1" booster if I recall and the LX is 15/16"
Not sure if they'll swap over but I'd imagine they would.

You may find that you'll have to stay within the '94 to '97 family of Accord brake systems. This is what I found:
Brake Boosters:
The Brake Booster for a non ABS system measures 8" Diam x 7" Deep
The Brake booster for an ABS system measures 9" Diam x 8" Deep.
Master Cylinders:
Non-ABS: 15/16 Piston bore Diam
ABS: 1.0" Piston Bore Diam. Reservoir larger on one example I found.
Both versions mount the same.
I can not comment on any issues you may experience with pistom depth or pushrod length. I personally have never had reason to do this. Whatever.
I hope this helps forward the discussion.
