Default 1966 Coupe Front Group

Hey folks,

I own a 66 coupe with stock front group and am considering replacing it with a complete one piece front tilt. Wondering how much is involved with this kind of swap. Any information or input would be greately appreciated Thanks in advance for any advice.
Not even sure if this is the right forum to post this if not my apologies.

it is kind of a dumb idea due to the shock towers and fender aprons, if it was a tube chassis car, different story

I'd need to know a bit more about your car but the question that is really bugging me is why because it is going to be a lot of work and money to do it properly .I would approach this type of conversion differently depending on the reasons for it (eg want something different or it's a PITA lifting out 460 to change plugs or want to save 20 lb's of race car etc)
