Will,
Where and what price are you are you getting on the volvo QL tabs? Half the price of the Lencos sounds like black friday deal. Have you looked at the Lenco edge mount tabs - I thought they were a little over 4 benjamins and only need 11" of clearance.
Regarding the strakes/steps just keep the tab parallel to the outer panel. The inner section that results in being higher than the step will still divert water. Narrower tabs with more chord are also available.
