Dont recommend monoleafs. If one breaks, which has happened, you go flipping down the road. Also, I've heard Caltracs aren't meant for a street machine. I spoke with the guy that invented them, but that was 7 years ago.
Some good springs from ESPO, a pinion snubber, and some shim plates to get the pinion at the right angle are all my 496 needs to solidly plant the MT ET Streets!
The Mopar springs I bought a while back were made in Mexico, and were crappola. I bought ESPOs at 2 inches over, and they raised the rear way to high. The stock height springs work great. Get ESPO stock height springs. 99% chance they will give you the correct height. If they don't, ESPO will re-arch them for free!!
