What tire pressure are you running right now? Try letting a couple pounds out.

Get better shocks (preferably Bilstein HDs if you are going to stick with the stock springs).

Our roads are about the worst in the country (and yes, I've driven through a good bit of the US for comparison. I've found that the SLP Bilstien Level II suspension that came on the Firehawk/SS is about the best riding f-body suspension, while still providing handling much better than stock. You can buy the springs shocks from SLP here:

single adj Konis set to full soft are even softer than 1LE ride-wise, but the car starts wallowing on turn in, even w/ 35mm bar

I wouldn't go with Konis if you are concerned with ride quality. I've tried both Bilsteins and Konis, and due to their design the Koni doesn't handle initial impacts as well as the Bilsteins.
