Default Ridetech Tru Turn, what springs

We have just installed Ridetech Tru Turn on a friend's 69 Camaro here in Australia. We installed a Speedtech steering box at same time.

This car is 100% street driver and he is really pleased with how car now drives. But it is just sitting too low for regular use. Car runs a BBC with 4L80e.

The initial install was with 1" lowering Global West springs, which was way low, with the built in drop of the Ridetech spindle

Then added a 3/4" spacer

Still a little too low, would like to raise it another 1/2".

Can anyone recommend a stock height spring to suit BBC with uprated spring rates?

thanks Roger
