shock and spring recommendations?

I recently did a similar upgrade going to the Caltracs bars and mono-leafs along with their front shocks. In the rear I am running QA1 single adjustable. It took a few times out at the track to get it all dialed in but once you get it there it works very nice.
One thing I learned through all of this is that using the Caltracs components they suggest 1.5"-2" of exposed rod on the rear shock. I was running the shock more in the middle of the travel and was topping it out. But by adding some 2" rod extensions I was able to get the rear shocks positioned correctly.
