Improving handling short of new frame

Whuile working in Panel I have seen few places the need strengthening for handling. Problem I have is I am drag racer thru and thru. I do drive agressively out in country amd have run very hiogh speeds in Z/28 on very twisty roads. I am not edumacated in raoid race suspenions.

Suggestions on how to strengthen frame,swing arms,tracking and overall handling without going to new frame which would be ultimate right after unlimited cash flow.

Life long fabricator. Build dragster and door car chassis from pile of tubing,Build house for living. Build motorcycles from ground up. So can make most things will need. Give me good picture and can build measurment help shorten the job(lol).

Plan is sway bars, performance shocks, lowering front and rear some but not slammed look. Redoing rear swing arms with track locator. Thought about 4 link setup but not sure how much benifit.Plus like it to look semi oem.

SO suggest away and if short explanation of benifit would be great.
