71 satellite, /6 to 440 conversion.

I just got the 6 banger out, and after extensive searches I haven’t found specific details on an aftermarket kframe with all other stock components.

I’d like to keep the torsion bars.
Tubular control arms would be nice
Front disk conversion
But would NOT like to do a full $6000 front end coil over swap.

So for mounting the engine I could do Schumacher conversion mounts, but figured if there is a better modern kframe that adds space and will let me use most other stuff it might be worth it.
Any ideas? Just trying to decide if I clean up the old one or convert it to a stronger/lighter modern version and use bigger torsion bars.
 
Just find someone parting out a car with a v-8, and discs. You could get the K-Frame, torsion bars, disc brakes and all the odds and ends. Going to a aftermarket k you will spend lots of money quick.
