I have my suspension choice narrowed down to the Detroit Speed or Roadster Shop Front suspension for my 70 mustang. The Detroit Speed looks to cost about $1650 more than the Roadster Shop. Is the Detroit Speed worth the extra $1650, or should I go with the Roadster Shop?

Probably should have posted in it your other thread about front suspension for your car.
They are both quality products. I know the DSE stuff, installed is actually lighter than the stock suspension.

Which of the two would be a better daily driver suspension?

Let's try this another way. How about you tell us about your car. Is it a driver now? Your swapping in a coyote right? What about rear suspension, current and future plans. Is the car painted, is it rotted to the door handles and will be a long term project?

The car is disassembled ready to get a new front and rear suspension. Yes I am swapping a coyote motor in. I haven't figured out what suspension for the rear yet, I want a suspension that will be a good street daily driver suspension. The car is a solid car, no rot. It will be painted after the suspension is put in.

Since the car is solid, why cut it all up?
Since you want a good daily driver why spend more than you have to?
For roughly half of what just the front will cost you can do both the front and rear (and have rebound adjustable shocks with a 1,000,001 mile warranty):

You have to cut it up to use a coyote engine. With that suspension I would still need to buy a rack and pinion conversion which would add to the cost.
