Default Leaf Spring Wheel Hop

I have a 69 Camaro with a LS engine (500ish hp at engine) and T56. DSE Multi Leaf Springs in the back. If I launch it at all on the street with drag radials I get wheel hop, burnout with street tires I've gotten wheel hop and hard 1st to 2nd shifts I've had a bit of wheel hop. HP Levels will only ever go up from here as I may go forced induction.

I'm trying to figure out if I can just get some Caltracs and would that solve my issue now and for if I decided to go up to 750hp or will I still have issues with that route and need to go with a 4link? I went to a local respected fabrication shop and they were pushing I go with a 4 link.

It's a street car that will see some 1/4 mile time at the track. Another note is I would like to go mini tub at some point in the future but that could be in a year or two. I'm not necessarily in a rush for that due to cost. Any help would be appreciated
