Jim,
The only other thing I could add, would be to remember you need to run 15" wheels to clear the brakes.

Thanks Dan, very helpful, looks like the vertical bar from the sway bar is from the old MGB suspension. Does that sound right? The picture is a great help.

Thanks Mike and Geoff.

Question for Mike Moor, what size tires did you use on the front with the 15" wheels?
