In the book the categories are ' up to 79', 80 and 81, then the other years each by themselves... so that is not a problem in that respect.....
However, the distance of travel when under 1000 Newtons of force puts these listed in the Weaker half of the springs available from MB ... and I think you need the upper half at the minimum... since you will be ' scrambling' to provide the robust strength which the SLS provldes stock.... All things considered so far I think you should not give up on finding a local spring retempering shop.... What big town is closest to you ?

FYI, I looked up the prices for those springs but ones for my car (same thing right?) BMA sells them for $50ea, with free shipping.
 See my site for the link to them.
