Half of tube diameter (or more accurately, distance from current leaf mount to new one) from current location to in line with lower leaf, then height of leaf pack gets you to in line with upper leaf, then another half of tube diameter gets you to leaf under spring, so it's full diameter.
When it comes to a notch, anything other than a step notch is significantly weakening the frame. Whether or not you can get away with it depends on how you're using the truck.
If you're actually driving the truck I'd want at least a couple inches of uptravel. On the other hand, you could set it up to have negligible uptravel static and then use bags so you don't break your back going over a pebble.
