The problem with the torsion bar arrangement on the Marlin is the end of the torsion bar goes through a hole in the chassis. Meaning that the torsion bar angle and hence castor and camber angles are non adjustable. Changing to coilovers would eliminate that problem.
I found some info on the Marlin Owners Club forum about the coilover solution. The only issue I can see is that the original bracket for the damper mounting wasn't designed to take the weight of the car so may need beefing up or remaking.
