Not an A-body, but I did UMI upper and lower tubulars and 550 lb Viking Coil Overs (UMI sells the Viking) for my 76 F-Body. Extremely happy with my application, to lower car and improve handling. Ride is harder, as would be expected, but not a big deal if expected. But I also changed the wheels and rubber with less side wall than my previous 15 inch. I have a “modern” unmodified sports car that is just as harsh. It just doesn’t rattle as much, but hey, my car is approaching 44 years old. Rides like a rail now, and feels a lot safer when pushing corners. The coils over are double adjustable and easy to dial in. If you go this route, get the spanners and thrust bearing kit if not included.
