Is there difference between the stock front struts on a V6 and and a V8 bird due to the heavier 5.0? Thanks guys.

Same part number same part. The only difference that is due to weight would be the springs.

the springs do make a a diff when i dropped the v8 in to my 84 bird (was a 3.8) it slamed it so i swapped the springs for some brand new v8 springs and now it rides high              maybe to high but the springs are diff for sure man
