Questions about 4/6 drop

OK so I got a rearend for my 70 GMC LWB with rear leafs. The question I have is what should I set the pinion angle at for the flip kit, and any other mods that I need to do aside from notching the frame. I'm also having trouble searching for 4/6 dropped LWB pics.... thanks!

Not sure you'll have to notch it. I never have on a coil spring setup. Never dropped a leaf spring truck,but I'm sure someone will chime in.

I just flipped my diff last night. There is a fair bit of spring travel left, so I didn't notch. I haven't lowered the front yet, so no pics.
