Default Which combination is better?

I have the rear leaf out to replace bushings, bolts etc. and need some advice.
I have original suspension front and rear with the exception of shocks (nothing fancy there either).

Should I replace the 9 leaf rear spring with a 360lb. monospring and keep the original strut rods? Or should I get the Smart Struts and keep the original 9 leaf until I can replace both front and rear suspension to match? I don't currently have the budget to replace both the rear spring and the strut rods so I need to know which would be best right now. Or if you have a better idea than I mentioned, go ahead and throw it in.

See original post for more info. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=132033

Thanks. I guess I have a tendency to get impatient. ;) I appreciate your info.
