Default Spring Tag Questions??

Where did GM usually put the front and rear spring P/N tags? I just restored the rear leafs and am starting on the front springs and would like to know where to put the tags. Thanks! Paul

Attached is a pic of the car.

After Installing the restored rear leafs, I checked out the front coils and lo and behold there was the original spring tags. They were light blue with black letters and read "YP"

Just curious what other Camaro owners, particularly 69 models, have found as far as original spring codes for the front and rear of their cars. Please list engine size and Hp. Thanks, Paul

Mine were light blue with EK followed by 3955710. 1969 RS/SS 350/300hp which matched my build sheet. Build sheet says BK springs on the rear.
