I replaced the front coil springs on my 68 Camaro Coupe 327 engine with a set of spring from Rick's First Generation Camaro (part #SS-417 68 Coupe 3955715 327 2bbl). When I removed the springs that were on the vehicle, I discovered they were longer and had less coils then the replacement spring from Rick's. After installing the springs from Rick's, the vehicle sits about 1.5 inches too low. I found some info. from Davidpozzi about MOOG coil springs and the MOOG spring chart. I cannot figure out which pair of MOOG springs that have the same specs as the springs I purchased from Rick's. Additionally, I would like to know what Load and Rate Load Hgt stand for on the MOOG srping chart.

I will get my great big spring book out tonight and hunt up what you have and get back. If David or somebody else doesn't beat me to it??
