I am trying to source a new pair of springs locally and since the local Eibach suppliers all deal primarily in muscle cars I would like to give myself the best opportunity to
not get the wrong parts. So if you have the part number or even the inside spring diameter and spring height (uncompressed) it would help. Apparently even the Eibach guys don't know what springs are being used on 914s.
Thank you in advance.

2.5" ID x 10" x 140lb eh? get em from jegs.com, cheaper too!

Money is right but 225 lbs sounds like a lot. I don't want to need beefier torsion bars just yet.
Besides I drive a pickup truck with a load in it half the time and I already know where to hit the railway crossing to avoid spilling my Tim Hortons. Verrr Stifff.

It is funny but the guy at the parts shop I was talking to here still hasn't given me a price. Maybe he is waiting for an e-bay auction to close. So much for letting someone else do the work.
