I've just completed the exact modification that you are referring for the same reasons on my '52. I used 2001 Saturn Vue parts I obtained on Ebay and it works great. I used the EPS to drive the stock steering box but if you are going to go with IFS the install would actually be easier. Be prepared to do a litte fabricating and spending a little time behind the lathe and mill. Send me your email address and I can send pics.
