Default First Gen Chevy II suspension

Well, I've been fighting and debating with front suspension on this old '62 clunker for a while. I've raced karts, and my DD is an '04 focus SVT, so I KNOW I need to build this car so it rails.....no straight lines for me. I've finally come to the decision that I want to go with C4 or C5 parts. A friend of mine owns a fab business, so he's onboard for building this thing with me.

Are there major differences between c4 and c5? I've found a c4 front end for pretty cheap and reasonably local, but theres always c5 stuff on ebay. Anything to look out for geometry-wise when fabbing the mounts for the a-arms? What kind of anti-dive angles are you guys running? I guess I could have a million questions, but we'll start with that....

I LOVE Novacanes car, that would be ideal, but my budget doesnt quite allow me to go to that extent.

Thanks

Rob
