you have original length stile springs, the aftermarket one`s I see are about 4'' shorter than the originals free length.
dead easy to install.

When you fit AC components use lots of windscreen sealant & hot wire fan so you can check for leaks as you go. Make sure you seal up the vertical cavity where water pipes enter to AC duct. Is the cause why vet AC isn't very efficient. Make   a seal between inner & outer pieces. Make sure the cold air & engine hot air don't mix. Check Check Check as you go

Yep! I'll keep that in mind. I've heard from others that that is the biggest issue with hot air getting into a C3 corvette. I have a whole set of new seals for the Air/Heater system.  I also have a C4 blower fan which I may consider mounting into the housing with a spacer. Apparently due to the shape of the fan, pushes a greater volume of air through the system.

While I'm at it does anybody have a radiator overflow tank that mounts on the o/side inner guard that they may want to sell or give away to a worthy cause :grin:

I made a spacer from a couple of nylon  cutting boards from supermarket I think a 10mm & a 6mm  cut it out with a jigsaw
