Default Coil over VS 5" sping an external shock?

So I have been wondering if there IS any real advantage to running a true coil-over compared to running a 5"/5.5" OD coil spring with a separate double adjustable shock?

Anybody have any insight on what works better or if there really is a huge difference where I can justify cutting up my buckets a whole ton to run a full length coil over? The QA1 set up will not provide me with many spring rates due to the conical spring design. But i can get tons of options in either the full coil over or a 5/5.5" coil.

Its not a matter of how much work, But more or less any REAL performance gain?

Is it more of a shock and spring working in the same arc or motion or being on the same relative plain?
