ACDelco vs Moog front springs?

Hey everyone, I'm currently in the process of removing my BMR lowering springs and I want to get back to a stock-ish height paired with Koni Yellows! (due to road conditions, comfort, etc. It's a 100% street car).
I've seen on Rock Auto the options for my 88 GTA are essentially:
ACDelco 45H0145
Moog 5662

Is there a difference in these? I already have replaced my rears with factory 98 LS1 springs and need advice on the fronts.

Re: ACDelco vs Moog front springs?

After reading a few threads I ended up ordering the Moog 5662 for the front.
I'll post some updates, I love the stance of the BMR springs but honestly that 80s retro "raised" look appeals to me as well.

I also ordered some new Hankook tires because my Kumhos are 8 years old and down to the tread bar.

Just got the Moog 5662s installed last night, what a pain - the ride height is just shy of 28" at the fender for the front.
Going to let them settle for 1-2 weeks and if it doesn't make a difference I'll probably cut 1/4 or 1/3 of a coil off the bottom.

The ride is amazing with the Koni Yellows.
