It took me a while to find the fronts as I was searching for the more correct spring rate when I was searching for springs. I remember searching for a spring rate around 320 in./in. I believe the 5380's were around 316-318 in/in

I don't see 5380 front springs listed for a '68 GTO. Looks like they are for a Chevelle with a V6 and small block V8 without a/c. Seems like you would bottom out with those springs in a GTO.
Are those springs working out well for you?
