Default 66 biscayne front suspension

Anyone know of any front suspensions upgrades or a front frame section that would allow me to build a great pro-touring g machine out of this tank

id give marcus at SC&C a call, he has some taller balljoints you could install to improve the caster curve, other than that you could either box the stock controll arms and install del-alum or poly bushings, or install a hotchkiss TVS... car caft did a 66 imp about 10 years back called "heavy metal II" let me know how it goes.. i have a 66SS imp id like to do the saem to some day... but the Bu is stealing all my play money right now..

but your best bet is marcus.. i mean if he can build a pro touring 62 suburban... the biscayne should present no hastle...

thanks for the help but I would like to get a little more aggressive on the front suspension do not mind if i have to replace the front frame. I was told if you start to push the car hard through corners the lower arm likes to flex and the lateral arm creates a lot of bind . But your suggestion makes alot of sense thanks for the info.
