Looking to olwer the back of my Mav with lowering blocks. Should I use ones listed for 67-70 Mustangs? They come in one and two inch. Do people usually use one inch?
How much gap is there between your rear tire and the wheel well lip? I like it so it barely hides the tire. Measure that distance. And the mustang ones will work. Or you can get the universal ones at any part store, they might be cheaper.

I have a set I will sell you for $10 plus shipping. They are 1" blocks, and I don't have the Ubolts, so you will have to come up with those. PM me if interested.
Thanks for all the answers guys. There is about 2 inches between the top of my tire and the edge of the fender. I'm running bigs and littles on my car and just put new springs on. They have settled down some but still too high for my taste. Didn't think about autozone, was just there today. Will check them out thanks!
I used the 2" blocks. They set the rear right where I wanted it after I did the Econoline leaf springs. As a bonus, the blocks helped me get the rear disc brake caliper brackets away from the springs, made that install much easier.
Those u-bolts are thicker and stronger than stock. Another plus. On my cal-tracs, they were a tight fit and I had to open the holes up to the next size bigger drill. 30 seconds per side, and done.
