Default Front end conversion kit

I have a 1967 Pontiac Tempest im looking at starting my LSx/t56 swap this winter so ive been gathering parts and planning, one thing i fully planned on getting was a full front end kit, i found one and bookmarked it but since then i had upgraded PC and had to reinstall windows and lost my bookmarks and for the life of me cant find the kit again. i remember it was a full front and rear kit, Kmember, A arms, springs sway bars etc, and im pretty sure it used C7 wheel bearing assembly and C5 brakes and was all bolt in for like $5-6k, think it was also all LS swap mounts. if anyone knows of the kit im talking about or something similar please link or send in the right direction lol. im hoping this is in the right section and apologizes if not.

Thanks!!

there are several vendors that probably have similar kits in that vein. detroit speed, sc&c, umi, etc.i would start with those.

There are several kits available for the A body cars. I'm sure a search will pull them up. Are you sure it was for Tempest? A body cars do not have a removable K member..
