Which springs?

In the process of getting some springs ordered for my truck.
I have a 56 stepside with a 78 camaro subframe, running a 2001 5.3L.

I am trying to find a set of springs that should give me a good enough ride/stance.

I'm thinking the 78 BB camaro springs will be ok, but figured I'd throw this out there to see if anyone has already run the same setup I have that could give me some tips as to what they did.

Re: Which springs?

You might try this over in the suspension side for input. I dont think there is enough weight difference from a gen 1 sbc and the gen 3 so I think the suspension side might help.
