Default 351c in an 83

Hi all,
I've been working on finishing up my cleveland, and getting my 83 ready for the engine. I'm to the point in the build where I need to start thinking about the specifics in the front suspension. I'm not sure exactly what I should go with to handle a large engine like this, compared to the 302 that was in there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as well as any suggestions for rear suspension too.

Thanks,
Jon

You can use the stock GT set-up, or you can convert to coil overs if you want to spend the jack. But basically you can use the same suspension components you would use on a 302 car.

Really? Damn, that makes **** much easier.

My other question is, I'm putting in a tubular K member, but I'm unsure which one I should go with. Any suggestions?
