Ok I've only just read this so don't complain if its total bollox. Triumph stag people upgrade the brakes to princess 4 pots, which are an upgrade
for ford M16. They also use Volvo 240, so perhaps they will fit as well.

yes, if you have the room then engine, box and axle (plus all related bits) may be useful? engine a bit heavy but no more so than a pinto. Axle heavy
but you'll never break it!!
