Eibach lowering springs

I am looking to buy a set of Eibach lowering springs off a Guy on this forum.
The part number online for a third Gen is 3801-140
He says that his are 3801-201. I can't seem to find this part number anywhere. I don't think that he don't know what he is talking about. I just want to be sure that I'm going to buy something that is going to fit on my z28.
any input would be great.
Thanks JOSH

Yeah, the numbers on my springs did not match the box set. Fronts and rears had different numbers and the kit was different again.

Re: Eibach lowering springs

Yup. Well, at first I did not realize I had front drop spindles so I had a surprise. After I swapped those out it was fine. Perfect height (pro-kit, not sport).

fronts were 3801.201
rears Id have to look but should be 3801.202
kit was K3801.140

Not a great angle but how it sits now:
