You might want to consider adjustable perches. This will allow you to adjust the ride height of the rear, and you can choose the spring rate you want.

I use this setup for autocross, and its very slick. You can find info at their website: www.re-speed.com

specs are in the FSM. FSM is a google away....

i believe they are 3.5" diameter, 100ish lbs/in stock. free length is in the 12" range, although you're better off looking in the book, i'm old....

there are plenty of choices.
