Do yourself a favor and search the forums here and other sites for information about what is involved with installing non-stock springs, add-a-leafs, extended shackles, overloads (including coils) and air shocks.
Everything is already out there for you to review and decide on.
But were you to ask me directly, I'd suggest simply replacing the leafs with new ones: that will take care of saggy leafs and return you to stock right then and now.

63" chevies require new hangers and shackles, u-bolts and shock mounts.
But they will give you nice flex and will ride much better then stock leafs.
