Where are some good places to get angle shims to rotate the pinion angle up? I don’t see them for sale much.

What are the pros and cons of aluminum verses steel Degree Shims? RE looks like they sell both.

Aluminum corrodes, although in California that's probably not much of a concern.
Aluminum also undergoes continuous slow deformation (creep) under load/pressure. If you run aluminum blocks or shims, you should train yourself to check the torque on the axle u-bolts religiously.
Mopar Performance Catalog offers angle shims. Doesn't say if they are steel or aluminum. Part No, P4529536. Kit includes two each in 1-degree, 2-degree and 3-degree.

RRO makes awesome blocks.
They will stack them in 1/2" increments and weld them together. They will weld a shim to the bottom as well.
Costly, to be sure, but they are steel and beefy.
If I used blocks, these would be the only ones I would buy.
HTH.
