Shock recommendations for SS spring car?

Locomotion said
The harder a car launches, the stiffer the shock should be. That was probably the difference between the Mopar auto & stick shocks. A shock has to control the wind-up and un-winding of the leaf springs. Too soft and you get wheel-hop because there is not enough dampening. Too much seperation is also not good and can break tailshaft housings.

I thought it was about launch severity. I've seen high hp stick shift Stock Eliminator cars that almost seem to have no rear suspension movement when bouncing through the pits. I'm figuring they have stiffer springs, and thus, stiffer shocks to control them.
