Anyone use a this QA1 front suspension on an early A body?

https://gerstsuspensions.com/products/gts-front-suspension-qa1/

Have a 64 Dart GT slant 6 car I’m going to put a 440 in. Was originally thinking a Mustang II suspension but this is as bolt in deal and will have the right track width. Plus they claim you can use block hugger long tube headers. A little pricey but I think it’s a better setup than the mustang II. Already have a Dana 60 for the rear.

Do you plan on cutting out the factory shock towers? Leaving them in is going to make it really tough to run an off-the-shelf set of headers. Most folks with big block early A's have to get pretty creative to run a set of headers. I know with mine, I had to take the exhaust up quickly to clear the shock towers.

Yes that is the plan
