Default Tear down progress

Currently in the process of removing everything from my engine bay and uncdercarriage, I'm at the point where the only thing holding my rear in is a floor jack and my shocks. Then out comes the gas tank, fuel lines, and break lines. I currently have it about 2.5 feet off the ground on jack stands and will hopefully be sandblasting the under carriage and chemically stripping the engine bay, as there is no rust under the hood. Both will then be painted with sem rust shield. I figured I would do an aeromotive 340 filter or twin walbros while the tank is out, get new springs, adjustable shocks, and brake lines after its all painted up. Ill probaby install my factory ten bolt back up for now, unless funds allow for a. strange rearend. Let me know what you guys would recommend using for springs and shocks. I have tubular everything ready to go in as well. Also after the paint I will begin to cut the hole for my master cylinder and shifter for an m6 swap.

My first choice funds providing would be AFCO double adjustables in the rear. My 2nd choice would be Strange doubles.
