RE: suspension question.....
I have those same springs. When I installed them, I replaced the stock isolators with poly units, so my drop was much less. One guy on here used those springs with the stock isolators and did get 2 inches or better on the drop.
You can use the stock springs for a while, but look into the DZ shocks/struts or jsut buy fox body pieces. They are shorter and work on our cars.

I paid $199 for the shocks/struts + $20 shipping. The ride is fine, comparable to stock. Another thing you should look into are shorter endlinks for your front sway bar. I picked mine up for about $30 from stangsuspension.com. I think Prothane makes them. They are only 4.25 inches long.
Also, since my drop was much less than 2 inches, I only added offset rack bushings and had it aligned. No problems. Not saying that what you got is bad or anything. If you drop 2 inches, you'll need most of that to get the alignment back.
