I would be asking S&W or some other about struts or coil over front setup.  The MII might be OK, but something you need to consider will be requirements for engine diapers.  Our track already requires on for 7.50 1/8 mile and under.  My Falcon is stuck at 7.60s because of that, there is no way in hell to get a bag on the pan with rear steer, under pan crossmember and tight headers - shock towers or no.  Alternately, leave room in your design for a NHRA type catch pan.  Again, with rear steer and such, it's nearly impossible to even get a pan on my car.  So I'll be looking at a whole new front end worked around the stock frame rails.

Thanks Rory,MR T, Falcon and Tom P
I know a strut frt end would be better,I already have a lot of m2 parts and bigger brakes, thus the questions on m2.(bottom feeder-econo drag)
Maybe I'll keep my eyes open for some fox or sn95 parts the same way I got the mustang 11 stuff.
