blup58 Officially Full-On Dubber

Just wanted to get some thoughts on suspensions set up.
My apologies if this has been covered before, but I couldn't find it.
I'm working towards finishing the rolling chassi for my very angry little beetle in the next month or so.
The car is a 57 shell on a modified 58 pan. The pan has the original front end but the rear has been converted to IRS. Engine is a 2110cc, and the aim is to build an angry little weekend warrior that will handle well and kick some ricer buttock.
I have CB performance drop spindles as well as adjusters in the beam.
I need to decide on suspension setups in the next week or so and wanted to get some forum feedback. Note: while I want to the car to perform well I don'e really want to spend thousands on setup.
My other options ar KYB and Bilsteins (not sure I can afford the Bilsteins though)
I had a quote for Konis today Front $150 each Rear $135 each, does this sound right?????
I also intended to run Whiteline front sway bar not sure on rear???
Any one got any recommendations or similar setups that they can comment on???
Cheers
Brad
