E-150 Upgrades

Well I have a MINT 78 ford van and need to do some upgrades. Everything is just old. I was wondering if anybody knew where to get some new springs for the front and rear and some headers for it. It has a 351W. I also want to find if there is any brake upgrades for it. I already read the 79 bronco brake upgrade, just wondering it it will work for me. Thanks in advanced.

what springs does it have on the front coil or leaf? If it is coil you are in luck you can get thous at just about any auto parts store. the best price i have gotten for coil springs for a ford van was 66 for the pair of them if they are leaf good luck most likely you will have to have them custom built.
