Another vote for Mike Dyer, tracdogg2@tx.rr.com.

Mike rebuilt mine as a 12 bolt and in addition to his excellent technical reputation, he's a hell of a nice guy.

I just ordered 550lb springs for my 1970 which was originally a small block. If the springs that are in there match your part numbers, you can have them for the price of shipping.
