My Moog catalog lists #5379 for the 1980 G-body unless yours is a wagon or El Camino.
#5379
5.570 ID (in)
0.562 Wire Dia (in)
6.694 OD (in)
8.50 Load Height (in)
760 Load (lb)
122 Rate (lb/in)
14.75 Free Length (in)
Pigtail Ends
Near as I can figure, there's about 5.0 active coils.
(Thanks for making me chase down the spreadsheet that has the active coils calculation and update the laptop)
