Sorry to bug you big-inch boys, but if anyone over here has information on swapping a 4 speed behind a 1960-62 Valiant/Lancer 170 Six, please speak up..

1960-62 Plymouth Valiant/Lancer: has anybody got any information on a bolt on Mopar 4 speed transmission behind one of these? I'd like to do a project around this but I don't want to do it backed by a three speed..

Did Mopar ever make faster ratio steering arms for the '60-'62 Valiant/Lancer? If not, does anyone have diagrams on how to modify them to fewer turns lock-to-lock?
Has anyone tried the Clifford Hyper pack repro 4 barrel manifold on a 170? I've seen some friction about Clifford on 4AO, but hot rodders I know swear by but not at them. If Clifford ain't it, what's the alternative?
Is there any body of knowledge on converting 1960-1962 Valiant/Lancer to front and/or four wheel disc brakes? Are there larger wheels necessary? Will a new/later master cylinder be needed? I'd like the conversion to be as unnoticeable as possible from the outside.
Is there a source available for converting the 1960-1962 Valiant/Lancer three speed column shift to a floor shift (a nice neat Hurst shifter, yeah..)? Or even better (big reality shift coming here..) did Mopar ever make a 4 speed with floor shift that would bolt up to a 170?
Is there a source for converting 1960-1962 Lancer/Valiant 3 speed column shifts to floor shift? Even better, was there ever (OK, big reality jump coming..) a Mopar floor shift 4 speed that would bolt up to the 170?
