What shocks to use with super stock springs?

Well after some modifying I finally have the superstock springs in my 72 Challengrer.
When I built the car for a customer back in the 90s, I forgot that I moved the rear springs inboard, and since they were moved farther than the kit spring setup, I had to cut and redo the superstock hangers. Now I wonder what shocks work best with these springs?
I figure that I want a shock that is loose in extension for ease of chassis separation, but not sure. With all of my other A bodies, I just used what was on the car and they worked fine, but those were only 11 second small block cars. I have a set of new KYB gas adjusts that I got in a big trade deal, but if there is something better, I'll buy them. I plan on running 9 somethings in street trim eventually.
Thanks for any info!

Seems like QA1 and Bilstein fully adjustable shocks are what most folks are using these days. The Challenger Hellcats and SRTs use Bilstein from the factory. I noticed the son's Scat Pack has Bilstein as well.
