1959 Project Questions

I'm currently working on a 1959 Ford F100 step side 2WD. I was looking for some technical questions about stuff like transmission work and body tips. I'm looking to keep it streetable but snappy at the same time. It currently has a 302 with an FMX transmission. I have a C6 transmission that i can put in, and was wondering if that would help at all? and maybe goin with bigger motor like 351W or something along those lines. Please respond or email me with any tips or anything. I'm also having questions about power steering, lowering it, and aftermarket parts.
Thank you

Check one of the "read this first" articles for a thorough discussion of power steering. There are Toyota power steering kits available for our trucks with a web search.
