Default HELP - SUSPENSION advice needed on a turbo body 66 SWB !!!

I need as much advice and opinions as I can get.
We are building a 1966 Turbo Look SWB car.
Engine is a Euro 3,0SC currently being rebuilt.
Gearbox is 915

It currently has 911 SC front and rear suspension. (A-arms - torsion tube - front suspensionand brakes)

As the car has 930 flares but uses very wide spacers, I would need your advice as to what would be the best suspension for fast road use.
I am considering installing 22 and 28 torsion bars, with Elephant adjustable spring plates and polybronze bushes.
Also Bilstein shocks.

What does it take to convert the suspension to 930 specs ?

All advices and ideas appreciated

Get your hands on a copy of the Porsche parts and tech. reference catalog
Which covers all 911's including turbo's from 1974 to 1989. It shows you the dfference by part number between the two.

Porsche P/N PNA 000147

If you want to PM me I can fax you the pages that show what you need.
