I'm looking at the 67-07WB's, Wolfetone Dr. Vintage, and Skatterbranes. Of course, I'm open to suggestions as well (for instance, if someone has a set of Wolfetone Legends and you think those are the best).

I'm planning on installing an RS kit and swapping out the stock pot, too.
I kind of did a little test yesterday at a studio, me and 2 other guitar players were messing around and we all 3 played the same guitar at the same levels and all 3 of us had a different tone. It seems what works for one doesnt have the same effect on the others. I think it just really comes down to what you do and like. You have a good selection of pups to start with but it may take you 10 or more sets to actually hit what you want. My Pagebuckers work well for me in my JPP and I wont change them. My Reverends from WB work well also, Im testing another pup sent to me from a friend and it also sounds great. Its all really just a question of taste really, theres no true Oh thats the one formula. Ya just gotta experiment.
