I have two pairs of front springs that can be used in V6 conversions of a Spridget (or even a light V8 if you go that far). They are Triumph TR-2/TR-3 springs, which have a heavier rating than stock Spridget springs and almost exactly the same free length. So, unlike all of the aftermarket heavier rate Spridget springs that I know of, these will not lower the front end. (Which can be good for header pipe/road clearance.) They are about 1/8" less in diameter than stock, so the ends have been hand chamfered to make them seat properly on the cones. So they are bolt-in.

One pair is almost brand new (~2K miles) and is +20% rated above stock, they were a little too stiff for my 3.4L crate V6. $45 +shipping

The other pair is stock, purchased from a salvage yard, $25 +sh.
