Opinions: 2-3" front drop, coils or drop spindles?

[Sp00ks65]

I'm new to the board. My son and I are working on my 65 lwb stepside. Right now we have the frame in the driveway degreasing. Soon we will start the suspension rebuild and I can't decide the best way to do the front drop.

I am looking for a later model chevy p/u to pull the front clip out of, among other parts. I have been unsuccessfull thus far but I'll find a one eventually. Basically we want to convert to front disks, auto column, ps, pb.

I have a 283 bored .060 over, mild cam, and am working on electronic ignition, 4 barrel carb. I also thought about some shorty headers and 2.5" exhaust out the back. I'm undecided on the headers.

Anyway, first things first. What are opinions on the best way to drop the front end? Drop springs or drop spindles? I want a driver that won't jar your teeth over bumps but handle a lot better than it did stock. I plan on sway bars etc.

Thanks.
