c5 like handling
I see that DSE offers a coil-over conversion for my 67 camaro that results "c5 like handling" and just out of curiosity I was wondering if anyone out there knows if c5 (or any other corvette arms) will bolt up to this stock 67 subframe for better geometry and a disk upgrade?

No C5 parts will bolt to a 1st gen. Heck many 2nd gen Camaro parts will not bolt to a 67. It think with the C4 vet they start using the reverse arc type geometry. To change over to that it is a all or nothing deal. There are a lot of kits that will make your hard top handle better but as long as you have a solid rear axel and your center of mass is a foot higher then a C5 you will never be in the same ball park regardless of budget or effort.

there is a multitude of options just depends on how deep your pockets are. also it will aways look better than a 4th gen even if it handles like a cow!! LOL

I just bought a lot of DSE stuff! They are the best in the biz for bowtie handling & performance. I have a 69 and hate the way it drives,rides,handles and the stance is too high. I'm going to install when weather gets better closer to spring. I bought the speed level 1 front kit, rear leaf kit,600 steering gear,etc..... . While I was out in No. Carolina I had the chance to visit DSE and go for a ride in one of the sickest 69 project cars they built courtesy of Kyle Tucker himself. I was sold! This car rode and handled like a modern vette and launched effortlessly with an LS7 and 335 tires. I took a tour of the facilty also and everything is top-notch!
