On the preload, I can tell you with my Caltracs *any* amount of preload will make your suspension so stiff as to be unbearable on the street. What I did was cut a piece of 3/4" ID heater hose (slice it length-wise) and wrapped it around the bushing that hits the leaf spring. This way I tighten just until it touches and it won't rattle.
At the track I was using anywhere from 1/2 a turn to a full turn; or typically would hand tighten then add about a 1/4 turn.

I got my Viking shocks installed. WOW what a night and day difference. The ride quality is 120% better. I really like the adjustability i have with these shocks. Now it makes me want some info on the front coil over conversion to get rid of my stock struts.
