Front coil spring dimensions/specs for C3's

[Bruce N.]

Hello,
Does anyone know where I can find information on the front springs for the 71? I would like to know stock length, diameter, spring rates, etc. I tried using Camaro springs and learned a very large lesson. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Bruce

Camaro springs?? Forget it! Corvette springs are unique to Corvettes. As far as springs for a 71, it depends on several factors like small block, big block, C-60, or F-41. For a small block with standard suspension the spring OD is just shy of 5" and 16" long. 9 coils with a 0.60" wire diameter.
