Default GMT900 Single leaf drag setups?

Wondering if anyone would share some successful drag truck setups using a single or split leaf rear.

I am looking to relocate the rear shocks and go adjustable... but it might be the right time to just go rear coilovers as it seems in a race truck the leaf springs arnt doing much besides locating the axle.

Thanks,

Jake

Leafs do way more than locate the axle. They are springs after all. They kinda hold up the back of the truck. However, if you wanted to, a ladder bar setup with coil overs is less complex than a 4 link and proven to be successful. Though plenty of folks have gone stupid fast on the stock leafs and decent relocated shocks.
