Torque arm/coilover question

[jaybee]

Thanks very much for the feedback. It all makes sense to me and I appreciate it. Sounds like I'm on the path to a viable plan. The cars I'm looking for are still out there, just a matter of finding the right car in the right place at the right time. Every Ford fan wants a Mustang, and I'm not sure how many are aware that just about every one of the compact and intermediate Fords of that era are mechanically very similar. As always there are gotchas. After all, it takes 5 different kinds of bolt and hex stud to install a water pump.
