shocks

Does anyone know the extended and collapsed dimensions of the stock shocks on a series 5 Alpine? I am searching for new shocks and not wanting racing or extra stiff replacements. I build for daily driving and overall comfort. Brands are not my interest but dimensions so I can research different brands on my own. My Ford 2.3 is in the car but without a transmission, the bumpers are removed, the hood is off, the windshield is off, and many other small parts off, and I measure about 12.5" as is. I guess about 12" for the loaded shock height with a fully equipped car. Any help appreciated.
