Mopar newbie

Hey all. 3 questions for the more experienced among you. As someone who has always had Fords and Chevys (eep!), I now have my first Mopar. It's a 74 dart swinger with a slant 6 and weeny drums all round.

#1 Seeing as a small block transplant is in the future, are there any suspension mods that have to be made to the front end? I plan on rebuilding the susp. all round with polyurethane components.

#2 Which is the STRONGEST small block Chrysler ever made? I'm not just concerned with power but with die hard reliability too. It will see some hard street use and some high revs on occasion. An old mopar head from way back told me the 318 is the strongest dodge ever made.

#3 Finally, can anyone point me to a small bolt pattern front disc setup if such a thing exists?

Many thanks and sorry for the long post. :shock:
