I'm yanking the 302 in my '68 and dropping in a 250. The 302 shattered pistons 7 & 8, the 250 is fresh.

I don't want my car to point toward the sky, should I use stock sixer springs or is there something better out there?

Whatever combo I use I don't want too firm a ride but I'm use to feeling every single bump on the road so it isn't that big a deal.

Stock I6 springs or stock V8 (non-GT) springs would probably be ok. KYBs for a comfortable ride. KYB GR-2 for a mushier, more stock ride.
