Von Shocks

I'm doing a full suspension upgrade on a 69. The plan is to go with coilovers on all 4 corners.
I have contacted Chuck at elephant racing (among others), I do not doubt his products but it would be nice with some feedback from users.
Anyone here who uses the Von Shock coilovers or dampers?

Do you all have the coilovers? What spring rates do you have.
I was thinking of going with 400/600 lbs, the car will be mostly a trackday car. I hope it will stay under 2200lbs when I'm finished.
