Default Re: Ed xr8 springs

Usually V8 springs are a little stiffer than the 6 cylinder ones, due to the heavier weight of the V8 engine over the front end which needs to be compensated for.

Not that a Windsor is that much heavier than a 6 though.

And being from an XR the springs will be stiffer than standard, so ride will be firmer.
