Question granada uprights.

I am at the final stage of roughing out my kit and components, one dilemma i have is suspension components. I have sierra front uprights and rear disc set up. but also have a brand new five stud granada/cortina type front uprights and rear hubs with discs left over from another project..
Is it worth the effort to swap over to these or is the difference not worth chasing?

Bob

There is a phrase that goes along the lines of 'using a sledge hammer to crack a walnut' the seirra up right is complete over kill for what it has to do on the roadster compare it to the granny upright and it's massive.
