Aluminum Motor LS Swaps... How did you achieve your lowered desired ride height?

Seeing that an aluminum LS motor weighs 140-150lbs less than an iron headed sbc, I'm concerned about how I'm going to keep my truck looking how I want it, without using expensive coilovers or chopping the springs in half. Right now I'm using 2.5" spindles and Eibach springs and my truck looks like this. I can't go to 3" spindles because I want to keep my 15" wheels.
