They're just stock replacements, but if they're valved for a GT, you'll probably notice a stiffer ride, and they'll probably handle better.

If you put 2.3L struts on a GT, you are going to need a spacer to stick between the strut mount and spindle. The 2.3L spindles have beefier spindles where the strut bolts up. You figure it would be the other way around, but it's not.
