I think the Stengal 78-581 is the 68-69 340 leaf spring.
Click on that p/n and the link shows the Chrysler p/n. Now you made me look at my '68 Book CD It still looks like that Chrysler number is only for some 383 equiped L, & B models 1967, 1968, 1969 1968 Standard Valiant, Dart 225cid 3004 581 Barr H T 225 3004 582 Barr Cnv, Ht Spcl 225 3004 585 Barr 318, 383 3004 588 Dart 318, 340 3004 583
Heavy Duty from the '68 Parts Book: V,L /6,273,318 3004 584 L2-S 340 3004 584 B exp 383, 3004 588 B 383,L2-S383 2808 677
My notes are that the '69 Parts Book give the following spring numbers for both the 318 & 340 cars. V,L,B 3004 584 Presumbly this is the spring used in '68 340 equiped Barracudas. I don't have supplementals for books.
To confuse things a bit, from the Chassis Manual, Ralley Prep, page 58: 340 H.P. 3549 059 110 lb/in 0" increase
Looking at the part parts books on Cd helps correct my notes, correction made in previous post regarding applications.
