Default Need some help

I hang out on the C2 side mostly but I need some help. I have a 65 with a dual mount rear spring from VBP. I need a stiffer spring but unfortunately VBP went out of business. I thought perhaps I could make a C5 rear spring work. Could I talk someone into taking some measurements for me? I need the spring total length, center to center end mount holes, and width.

Thanks
Tom

Thanks. That may be heavier than I need but if the price is right I take it anyway just in case.

Thanks
