Default Best shocks/strut & spring set-up

I have a very streetable 5.0 that will soon be a solid 11 second car on spray. I am on stock suspension and have some Ford Racing "B" springs in the car as it sits.

I want a good ride quality and want to retain the lowered look. I really am looking for something adjustable so I can retain the ride height I would like. On top of that I really want a good drag shock/strut set-up that will retain "streetability and a smooth ride quality".

I really would appreciate some help on this so I make the right decision the first time.

-Jeff
