Default Single or Double adjustable shocks

I am running a VBP transverse leaf spring set up on my TA and am real pleased with it except for shocks. I started off with Edelbrocks and they were no where near correct. I am running Hotchkiss bilsteins and they are real close.

Here are the choices I am considering:

Have Bilstein or Hotchkiss revalve my current shocks as I think we can get close if they will work with me.

Buy new shocks, QA1 or Varishocks. I like the idea of adjustable shocks so that I can dial in the ride I am looking for. The system rides very well with the Hotchkiss shocks but under certain circumstances they are slightly under damped. How much will I give up going with the single adjustable shocks versus the doubles? My budget would prefer the singles as it leaves more money for a new dash. The VBP setup is pretty adjustable as to ride height and spring rate and I want to take full advantage of this with adjustable shocks. Am I going to be happy with the singles or will the doubles offer that much more?

This is a street car and I doubt it will ever see road course or autox. Once I get the shocks dialed in, I plan to leave them and enjoy driving the cars.
