Power is nothing without control. I vote suspension first.
Luckily i had enough cash to do both at the same time. I went for BMR's Level 2 suspension package. Its more of a handling pakage rather than drag. But its made a world of a difference.

Suspension Suspension Suspenion!
That is the single most important part of making a car fast IMO.
After I did boltons on my car, A Strange S60, Suspension parts, and a Stage 3 T-56 was ordered. I wanted to have a bullet proof drivetrain that will handle whatever I build my motor to do someday.
My friends laugh at me because I have only 294/324 Hp/Tq, with all these expensive components. But I won't be the one breaking things at the track....(hopefully)
All my car needs now is something done to the motor. Heads and Cam are next.

Unless you are planning to break a record with tons of power doo suspension first otherwise you should be fine with mild strocker and stock suspension and rear end.

They're fine. My car has full suspension as well. I did brakes first though. Next is trans and rear with a hood and a lid swap. Goal is to run mid 12's with a completely stock engine aside from intake and exhaust. If you can't control the power it's only good for making smoke and wasting money.

I'm going full QA1 suspension before I build my stroker. They offer a full package for F-bodies, and it looks sick. Also I'm probably getting a 12 bolt before I put a whole lot more power through it... that 10 bolt's days are numbered lol

Question is How many times will you be at the track? I've brought my car to the track once and only had a few minor mods. My car is just a sunny DD, and care less if i got loose when I floored it. I've have started doing some suspension mods.
