    Moog 5450 are for BB chevelle front, hd. I had them in mine, gave a nice sporty, good-handling and cornering ride. Firmer than stock.

    are these springs for the 454 ci chev or 396 (402) ci. engine?
    i think there s/b different springs for each. i would suggest those for the 396 bb chevelle.

    What would be the difference?
    The Chevy 396 and 454 use the same block, so weight difference would be negligible.
