Totally different design, smaller/weaker ring & pinion/diff; why would you want to swap that in?

If you are looking to have a better handleing and stopping car... I'd part out the wreck if you need the cash first and buy a brake up-grade and add 4 wheel discs. As for suspension there are tons of kits and parts out there.  Just changing to a 1" sway bar up front and adding a rear sway bar will make a big difference.  Poly bushings front and rear will also help.  I did the latter on my convert.  Made a huge difference!
