However, you will have a better twisty road type cobra..assuming you go with the original config (ladder frame, no power assist steering, etc...)
If you go with the 289 FIA and a small block. ..you can put a 351 or a stroker version of a 351 in there...You can also have a 427 STYLE cobra with the 351 block. Or an aluminum BB motor.
The possibilities are endless, but coilover or even fixed coil type suspension is always better than leaf, from what I understand.
Oh, and one more thing..the archives here are full of info..recommend you spend a month of your spare time and peruse them till you drop
