Default Super Stallion Specifics

I have two mustangs. One a 2000 V6 vert and the other is a 1998 V6 coupe. Since I'm not driving the 98, I've been thinking of doing some work to it. I want to build the Super Stallion. I know there might be a lot of differnet arguments about the car to build, but the Super Stallion is my dream car. Does anyone have any of the specifics of the vehicle? I know it is a supercharged 5.4 DOHC, but is it cast iron like the Navigator? What kind of suspension, brakes, rear end, super charger...? If the 5.4 is out of a Navigator, does that mean I need a Navigator computer? Obviously I have a lot of reserch to do. I'm in no hurry, and I figure I will work on it bit by bit as finances allow. Also any advice on where to start would be appreciated. I figured suspension, but not really sure. I would still like to drive the car every now and then as I make the upgrades.

Thanks!

Rather than do a direct copy why not just build your car as a "inspired by". The way I see it there are some 1 off parts that will be hard to duplicte and even then you are just copying some else. just me but I like to be original.

Of course, I understand there will be some things that I will have to make concessions on. I am sure there are some customer built parts that I will not be able to duplicate. I want to get as close as possible. To the best of my knowledge, they only made one, so I think it will be different enough to stand out.

I am really confused by the suspension. How does the front suspension work without a strut tower? I'm also really confused about the rear suspension. I have never seen anything like that. Would that have to be custom built, or can you buy the parts for that?
