Default Chassis Plans

I am looking for some plans for building my frame. Have not decided which to go with yet the 289 or 427 but the simpler the better for me. Do the different bodies require different frames or are they mostly the same? Any help would help me out.

289 uses 3" tubes for the ladder frame closer together, 427 uses 4" tubes further apart. Effectively the same construction with the 427 being wider and beefier. Early 289's had transverse leaf spring suspension. Later cars used a-arm with coil overs. Cobra restorers sells frame only (no suspension) drawings for about $200.
