Santhuff is the way to go. They will want some accurate info (scale weights and desired ride height, etc) but their stuff is pretty much right on.

The Moroso Camaro's fit but, your might have to trim length a hair.

Lynn,

I use Moroso trick front springs, p/n 47230 on my '71 Big Block Corvette. They are 5.00" OD, 16.1" tall, with a rating of 217 lb/in. I installed them as-is, and I'm very happy with how the car sits. Hope this helps. Good luck
