Need help with rear leaf decision

[440runner]

I am going to replace my old worn out leaf springs and wondering if anyone had advice on what would be best fit for my preferred ride height.I have a 73 Roadrunner with 16" Magnum 500 wheels and like a fairly low ride at the rear. I really don't want to have the rear sticking up but more of a even plane. The car has a 440 stroker (500CID) Dual Quad intake so traction is a priority and i figured new springs would help.I have searched several sites for HD or Stock but have only seen springs up 72 B Body, no 73. Any suggestions where i might find them and will it just be a plug and play or will i need hangers, U bolts etc? I want to be sure i get everything the first go around because i work overseas and only have a couple of weeks to cruise. I don't want to be waiting on parts when i am home. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Great looking car! Have you looked in to having your existing springs rearched?

Didn't know that could be done but will look into it if i can't find replacements. Thanks!

Had mine on The Golden Rotisserie Chicken Rearched . I had them add back in 2 inches of arch. Then I powder coated each leaf and reassembled them with new shims and plastics and new bushings. There on the car now and it looks like the ride height will be ok.
