I use the grooved Bantam / Cub shoes from Mick Ash,(RIgid Ajay,Rickman hubs) they will also go in my Ariel,(Alan Whittton hubs) when it goes together. On my last Ariel it had a Leader front hub and I got Villiers services to reline them.They were good even when wet,only gave up when they,(And me) nearly drowned at the Talmag in 2014....

Relines your old shoes to whatever size you want

Tell him its for a trials bike and he will fit linings

That actually work , and work when wet... (In my experience )

He rides a classic trials bike and knows exactly what you need\want

To get the best possible brake :

1: Skim\True brake drum. Then mount oversize relined brakes on lathe and turn to fit

Or

2: not easy to get drum skimmed but anyone with access to a lathe can turn oversize linings to fit (may have to relieve lip on drum with file or die grinder\dremel )

Or

3: measure the internal dia of drum then tell ian the size and he can make oversize to fit

After that it's where do you stop ! You can get rid of ovality in pivot bush, strengthen and extend bush and mounting, alter length of arm .......
