The CE's i have will work on yours. They are 14.5"-24.5", compressed and extended. You sit about the same height as ss springs now. Given the choice today, I would go with the cal tracs and their split mono leaf springs. You can always add the caltracs later and just get the springs for now. Thee ss springs work great but they are a lot heavier. They may be better for all around drivability though. They handle pretty good.
Anyone have comments on the Calvert split mono leaf springs?

My advice for him is go ahead with the cal trac/mono leaf setup. I wouldn't suggest SS springs, because as long as you're spending money go with the better technology available today. The only alternative I would suggest is stock springs from a 340 car if he can get em cheap, or work out his modified /6 springs to be the equivalent to them.

His first order of business is get that pinion angle right and some longer shocks. SS springs won't help a damn bit if those 2 things are still wrong.
