I have a 67 chevelle malibu that I have driven for 7 years. It was time for a frame off again and I was sick of the handeling and breaking . Before I came across this site I had began to purchase some items. For the front I have ordered SSBC front disc conversion kit with the 2" drop spindles. Aslo QA1 pro coilover conversion kit with 350# springs. What I am wondering, is with those shocks will I be able to use the SC&C street comp stage 1 arm and ball joint, and if so will I have to build a upper shock mount. Was also throwing around the idea of getting the splined sway bar for the front from DSE. In the rear I have ordered all Edelbrock parts consisting of lower trailing arms, upper control arms, antihop bars, and trailing arm mount braces. I would like to get a coilover conversion kit (QA1) to keep it the same up front and in back. Is this coilover kit ok or is it of a poor nature. Also looking at getting the tubular rear sway bar from DSE. Was wondering if I am going down the right path with my purchaces and what else I should be looking at to complete my suspension upgrade. I am by no means an expert on suspensions. I do however have full access to a welding shop ( currently where my frame is) Info on where to box, brace, or over all stringthen the frame and suspension would be of great help. Thank you for your time and hopefully I can get some great ideas from some of the great minds in here.

That's a lot of questions in one post...I'd suggest calling Mark at SC&C (www.scandc.com) and taking advantage of a free suspension consultation. It's what he does and he does it well IMO.
