Awesome! I have a 70 Montego (formerly Monte1go of HotRod) with a 429 that I hope to build a nice BBF for one day.
Two things about suspension
1. Do the shelby/arning Drop.

Or If you have an extra 600 bucks, get the global west upper arms for the 1.75" drop. This is one of the biggest things you can do to correct geometry issues and increase the handling of the car significantly.
2. Don't Be afraid of high spring rates!
I have 750 lb/in. springs in my car with 1 1/8" front bar and it does not ride poorly, just firm and controlled.
