Tinker,

Go to Barnes and Noble book store and get a copy of "English Cars" and look in the back and there will be numerous parts places, a lot in CA selling MGB parts.

Use your search engine and look @ Eibach. They can tell you the dimensions of the oe spring and suggest a fitment for your V8--but you must know the weight first. The OE Cobra had a 53% rear weight bias, so that can give you a statring point IF you know the overalll weight of your car.
