Default 64 coupe front springs?

64 coupe with a/c 327 manual it does not look like there is a difference between a non a/c car and one that has it you would think there should be one. What springs would you use will not track this car and also ease of install would be nice as well-there are so many springs for this car-touring f41 etc...

Suggest you look at Eaton Detroit Spring - they have front coils for 64 Corvettes - with and w/o factory AC.

replacing control arm bushings so why not install new springs as these are a little bit on the low side.

Moog 5762 would be on my car if I had A/C. I installed the 5758 springs on my 64. Lower relaxed length meant no spring compressor needed upon install.
