The Gt6 motor weighed as much or more than the 302. I would just use the GT6 springs and make sure bolts and bushings are good.

Re: Front end/suspension beef up
The GT6 motor weighs 35 pounds MORE than a Ford 302 with aluminum heads. Iron heads add about 40-45 pounds to the Ford. A T5 weighs about ten pounds more than the GT6 transmission. I don't know about the four-speed or the Spitfire engine.
