They're 1.45" diameter, they're OK but not very good ones. I would not recomend using the exact replacement.

Get a set of Comp 986 or 987, or the equivalent from Crane, Lunati, etc.

The thing is I have a new set of these Edelbrock springs, and I want to sell em'. But I don't have the specs or part number for them, and don't know how much they're worth.

The competition is about $120. Something like $75 or $80 is probably a fair price. They're safe to about .550" lift, with about 120 lbs on the seat and 300 at .550" IIRC. But I could be slightly off on those numbers. They're a double spring with damper.
