So i'm planning on my 72 dart swinger with a 360/904 combo to go up front with 1 inch torsion bars from just suspension, rms adjustable upper control arms and adjustable strut rods, and bilstein shocks while i'm converting to the big bolt pattern. I have a ford 9 inch with the leaf spring perches moved in 3 inches and inboard coil overs, disc brakes all the way around, I will also be adding subframe connectors, i'm building this car for the street and want it to be able to take corners fairly well, Is there anything else I should upgrade while i'm in there that will make a substantial difference?

Inboard coil overs? So what are you using to locate the rear axle? Upper mounts?
leaf springs will still be there, that's why I stated the perches are moved inboard. The car that I pulled the rear end from already had this setup, I will be mini tubbing the car also and using a fuel cell.

sounds great! should be really fun to drive,. sway bar up front? firm feel has nice ones and kits. I have their rear kit for the a body. I may not even use it depending on how my car shakes out on oversteer. what wheel tire combo you have planned? backspacing?

Always be sure that the front springs and sway bar are stiffer than the rears.
