Default 69 Camaro Rear Suspension Choice?

I am slowly buying parts for my 69 Build, and I am now at the cross road of deciding which rear suspension to use and thought some input from others might be helpful.
Here are the 2 options I am thinking about...
1) AME Max G full frame with C6 front suspension and a custom Torque Arm 3-link setup and custom Watts Link. I know they already offer the complete frame like this, but I want a full length Torque Arm and I want the Watts link mounted to the frame not the rear end housing.

2) AME Max G full frame, just the bare frame and buy a complete C6Z06 drivetrain with LS7, Front and Rear Suspension, Transaxle, etc and mount the front suspension to the Max G then fabricate all that is necessary to mount the Transaxle.

This is for a 69 that will be more of a showcar/street rod that has the capability to hammered on when desired. It will never see anything other than 12x12.5" rear wheels with Michelin PS2 335/30R20's (no drag radials or anything that would break the IRS). I've already got a custom 15" wilwood brake setup for the front and rear. I plan to run either a built LS7 or Supercharged LS3.

Which setup would you recommend/choose for your own build?
Thanks for any input.
