2L and Capri have the same spring width. Sometimes the king springs/ lovells arent worth the effort. I had the height of my car go up after installing lovells as the standard springs had sagged over the years. In the end I reset the standard coils by 50mm which worked pretty well. A neat trick is to carefully cut the bottom spring seat off the strut leg and weld a threaded collar to the base of it. Then weld a threaded tube to the strut leg and spin on the bottom seat & lock ring.
