Default front clip & rear clip vs. full frame?

Frank, you mentioned it is much more work with a AM full frame. For a performance standpoint if one was going to put on a new front clip, welded in rear clip (3 link or 4 link), sub-frame connectors, mini-tubs..... how much more hours of labor is it to do a full frame? Won't a full frame be a much better suspension system? I know this is a real pain on the unibody car, but you can set the ride height to be nice an low. I noticed on the Camaro you are building with JP, a reproduction floor pan is being used. Does putting in a full frame on a unibody car imply you have to custom fabricate a new firewall, floor and trunk pan or can reproduction parts be adapted to work?

Thanks, Josh
