i am restoring my 68 cutlass convert. i am installing a dribetrain from a 68 442

Starting to reassemble the front end , what coil springs should i use for the front and back to keep the stock ride height.

Anything wrong with the ride height that it currently has. If not then just cleanup and use your old springs.

i believe it was OK. Car has been apart for approx 1 year so far . I thought installing the 400 it might need springs from a 442

Ok, misunderstood, there is about a 60# difference in the weight of an sbo vs bbo. If your changing manifolds to aluminum and adding headers that weight difference decreases.
