      Joe,

      If my understanding is correct, the small block (with or without A/C) used the same standard front spring, even though I have seen GM documentation in my 1967 GM Restoration Package showing a special spring intended for cars with C60.

      The standard coil spring is GM 3851100 (see 1965 front spring chart in your Assembly Manual, UPC 3, Sheet 4). Doc Rebuild's catalog shows NOS springs still available, but the catalog is from 2008.

          Per Dr. Rebuild online catalogue

          1964-1967 Corvette 327 Coil Spring NOS GM 3851100
          http://shop.docrebuild.com/1964-1967Corvette327CoilSpring3851100NOSPair.aspx
          Genuine GM manufactured standard suspension coils spring NOS 3851100 for 1964 through 1967 small block Corvettes. Includes one PAIR. 17 3/ 4 inch free length x 0.60 wire diameter. These are the elusive progressive rate coils where the space between each coils progressively varies in size from 0.060 inches to 0.95 inches. Only these progressive rate coils produce the factory ride height and feel that is a lacking in any reproductions.

              I have the front springs from Paragon in my car and the ride height is perfect.
