Default 1965 Mustang Front End Question

I recently purchased a 1965 Mustang from an individual and he swapped the original V6 out with a 351w V8 engine, however he did not do anything to the front end for the additional weight of the new engine so the car pulls and wobbles alot on the front end. Can anyone provide any info on what I would need to do or how I could sturdy the front end up. I am not that familiar as this is my first mustang and would appreciate any assistance or advice.

Also, If anyone has any good resources for Ford Mustang Parts, information (i.e. electrical diagrams, how to guides etc), or just great reading material.....Please send it my way!!!

To start, the springs in the front propably need to be replaced to support the extra weight.

A good source for info is MustangForums.com Mustang Forums & DazeCars, Suspension 101

A good source for parts is Summit Racing
