What leads you to believe they are 426 hemi specific ? What brand are they?

I can't remember which ones the pink stripes were. Do you have a caliper you can measure the wire with? Do they have inner springs or just dampers?
To be honest you're probably better off just taking 2 of them to a good engine shop and have them measure the pressure at installed and compressed height, and see where they coil bind, that's what matters anyway.

Color coded stripe like pink means possibly a K-Motion spring ?

ding, ding, ding, 10 points for me
K-1000 I believe are roller springs I'm not near my book for specs. Google it and it will come up, dual spring.
