? about leaf springs for a 68 camaro

I purchased a 68 camaro about 4 weeks ago. The car leans to the drivers side. Should new coil and leaf springs fix this problem?
I have heard a few people with the same problem say it didn't fix there's. If not what would it be? Also, should i go back with mono-leaf or change to multi-leaf?

Thanks in advance,
Chad

Chad, new leaf springs may fix your problem. My car was leaning to the passenger side and after I replaced the springs, my car did not lean anymore. But some people have replaced the springs and it still leaned which could be caused by worn out rubber body mounts or just a tweaked frame.
As far as mono or multi that is up to you. I had mutli leaf springs originally on my 68, but went with some parabolic monoleafs when I replaced them. I did this because I know the setup I have will allow me to put a lot of power to the ground at the drag strip.
