Depending on how much money you have (It adds up quick).
Wonderbar, bushings, transmission brace and relocation LCA brackets.
Might want to get an adjustable panhard rod and LCA...
Since you got it all a part, You could give it brake job or upgrade to 1LE braking system.
Maybe add some drop spindles???

if you lower the car with the springs definitly get lca relocation brackets. they wil definitly help. i installed edelbrock springs recently and i get tons of wheel hop b/c when you lower that car it changes the angle of the LCAs. the relocation brackets fix this. if you have any questions about this see the message board under spohn performance. i recently asked the same question.
