Question Hybrid Donor Question Suspension

For those of us that are not building from a single donor. Engine and gearbox choice is pretty much unlimited,diff can be sierra,subaru,bmw and i have managed to get a jag salisbury in my mule. Brakes are pretty much what ever you want from ap racing down to stock sierra. Then it comes to suspension and that is where things become unclear.There is the standard sierra set up, the mazda and cortina/granda that will fit. Now without starting a whats best war, what is the best combo of front and rear uprights, are there any gains to be had from mixing and matching from the above handling wise. For example if the mx stuff is better for handling does it fall short on braking options. Which set up has proven to be the better geometry.
