Alternatively, I could place the slinkies under the driveway, there the sun will heat the ground.

There is an organization called the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association. They have collected technical information regarding the installation of heat pumps for the last 60 years or so. Their information will apply to your situation.
They sell excellent manuals, which can be purchased
HERE.
You will see that they have a manual specifically about slinky installations on that page.
This will be exactly the information you will need.
However, the technical questions I was asking you previously, will be central to the successful completion of your project.
Any further questions?
Best,
