I have a 79 Pace Car that I have fixed up for handling.
First thing these cars really need to handle is chassis bracing - subframe connectors, K-member brace, strut tower bar.
After that replacing all the bushings with polyeurethane, and changing the springs and shocks/struts would be a good idea.
Putting in V8 springs would probably make your car higher in the front since you are lacking 4 cylinders.
I don't know far you want to mod the car, but the next logical mods would be control arms and panhard bar
