Default Difference b/t GT and V6 springs?

Guys, I see that eibach makes 2 different kinds, and others dont. Ex: On ebay they have like a set for 100 bux (what is this) They say they work for both gt and v6. Also i was wondering if Gt's will work on a 6. Thanx

The only difference that I could see is the valving on the GT shocks are a little firmer to match the slightly stiffer springs, but it's probably not that big of a deal to make a difference on the street. You need shocks already?

Well, if the picture of the V6 springs on ebay is correct, it looks like the V6 front springs get smaller at both ends. The ones for the GT only get smaller at the top. This is probably the major difference between the 2. The GT front springs are probably a little stiffer because of the added weight of the engine. The GT spings should still fit the V6 since the struts are the same design, but you will see a different size drop.
