Looking atthe application guide at Classic Industries, the 68 and 69 usedifferent springs in some instances, and some are the same, depending on the options. That's a big difference you have though, are you sure they didn't send you big block springs?

fixed the 68 camaro today, took the new springs and cut a 1/2 coil instead of 1 coil and the carhas a good stance, nowthe tiresabout 1 3/4to 2 in from the front fender.
also replaced upper control arm bushings and the toe is correct, very happy
