Yes, they are cramped partially because the pedals come up through the floor. It is something you get used to, but if you drive it for a long time, it is a little hard to stretch. Somebody was working on hanging the pedals from the top. Neat idea, but probably a lot of work. The up side is the can handles really nice because it is roughly 49/51 balance. With the 10" wide front tires and manual steering. It still steers pretty easy.

I have never heard of a Mustang ll front end upgrade. I suppose you could do it, but unless you are good at fabrication, you might have a hard time. I have seen a lot of Arntz and Butler cars and they all had MG front ends. There is a company called FAST in Michigan that has a tube upgrade with Wilwood brakes. Easily bolts in p,ace. They are not real cheap, but they work great with coilover. I have that upgrade in mine. I think Unique Cobras also have an upgrade as they originally used MG front suspension. I called them, but they were the same price as FAST and the FAST was a bolt in and theirs required welding etc.

Mine has a LS3 now with a T56. It has 575 hp with 3.70 gears and it runs great. The frame/ body in these cars are really strong. If I had to guess, yours is probably a Tupe 3.
