Looking back and learning from past builds I would definitely do thing differently. Since your car is a 2nd gen and I have a little bit of experience with this. I would do a plug and play LS Engine & Trans and a complete bolt on front suspension.
As for the rear suspension I would seriously consider the leaf spring options that are out there which would lower the car just enough to look nice.
Do the rear outer wheelhouse modification so you could tuck the taller rear tire.
Afco LS 2nd Gen Radiator
Vintage Air
28" tall 275 for the rear
25" tall 255 for the front.
Keep it simple and be done in less the a year and have a ton of money left over to cruise the car to all the places you want to.
