Anyone have a 56 w/mustang II and 460?

I have a 56 for i build in high school, full frame off. It has been driven very little and is still in mint/show quality shape. At the time-mid 90's, I used reversed eye mono leafs and a cougar power assist steering setup. I have a 460 in it with a c-6. I am looking to update the ride/brake. The drum barely cut it and the ride sux. It might be partly the way the power steering is installed or the leaf cant really handle the bb. Anyway I want a mustang II

Who has done it. Who has pictures? What ifs kit, What oil pan, firewall clearance, motor mounts, headers, steering column, ujoint, shafts. What else would i need to complete this. How much money?lol I hate to weld on the frame as it is already been basted and epoxy painted but I think it needs to be done. I put a power booster in it last year so i guess i have 1 part already.

I was searching mono springs and came across this
Can't speak to the question but thought I'd bring it back to the top

I have a mustang II and I'm not that impressed with it. Now if I had the original suspension first, I might think differently. I see he has only 17 posts, so I suspect he's no longer amongst us.
