Default BRP rear shock relocation kit and suspension setup, anyone install one on a 1st gen?

EDIT: This is for a 69 camaro

I am starting back up on my build and I would like to get some help with building and setting up my suspension. I am sure there are better combinations, but this is what I felt to be the best choice for me. not looking to be the badest out there, just have a nice ride. this is what I have so far.

New OER subframe my OEM one was tweaked bad. since I bought 2 used ones which turned out to be bad I gave up and bought a reproduction.

Global West upper and lower arms
Global West body bushings
Global West subframe connectors
DSE 2" drop coil springs
DSE 3" drop leaf springs - GW bushings
73 Nova 8.5 rearend rebuilt with posi 373 gears
BRP rear shock relocation kit
89 Z/28 quick ratio steering box - new steering components

Front brakes - C5 brakes using the C4 13" rotor and speedtech adapters
Rear Brakes - BRP spacer, ls1 camaro rear disc brakes with corvette calipers
Kore 3 - brake conversion lines

Engine - LS1 with LS6 cam and 243 heads carb setup T56
BRP LS1 conversion motor and transmission mounts
Spectra gas tank

Still need the swaybar and shocks, master cylinder, brake booster - going with the corvette setup. Still need alot more but trying to build it little by little.

So my first set of questions.

Has anyone installed the BRP setup before? what shocks did you use for the rear and the front? Does anyone have a similar setup that has any pointers for me?
