Anyone know what would happen if you slackened off the torsion bar and replaced the shock with a coilover unit right length?

it would push through the top of the wheelarch pretty quickly, unless you reinforced the whole area properly

it wouldn't work thats what.

For coilovers which are useless unless its on a track car tiy need to turret the rear wheel tubs properly, then change to either wishbones or another 'dead' axle.
