Does the adult Red Ryder have the Calbalt 327 super spring from the factory?

The adult Red Ryder is the same internally as the standard 'Ryder. Which is also the same as the model 105B Buck, for that matter. So no, it doesn't come from the factory with a stronger spring. You can expect to get 260- 270 fps, give or take, from an unmodified current production Daisy lever action BB gun.

Thanks for the quick replay. I had already a cobalt327 that I will put in.   My next question is, “do I need to coat the spring with some kind of lubricant? Does a dual port air tube make any more FPS. Also putting on a scope and a tripod. Just having fun.

It has been my experience that the optimum set up for a 1938B Red Ryder using the stronger spring is a production Daisy air tube drilled to 7/64" ID. There is no modification done to the intake port other than deburring. 

For what it's worth, Shane did some independent testing involving dual vs. single air ports, you can see the results here:
