Marzocchi Fork Springs 1980 Jota

[GrahamE]

Evening All,
Well I'm back in the garage and all goes well with the re-furb and polishing.

So, I have now pushed the forks thru the stanchions, they are now 6cm proud of the top stanchion, giving me an overall un-compressed fork length of 830mm (top of stanchion to base of fork leg)
The complete length of the fork is 890mm.

I pulled out one of the springs and its 456mm, with a 120mm spacer on top.

My questions are;  are my springs knackered ?, what should be the correct length.
What would you recommend as a replacement ?
cheerz
