AFAIK, it's the same: F1/F2/F3/F4/F5/F6/F7/F8 & F5/F6 Cab Over Engine.

51-52 grilles are the same for all models. They made the fenders wider on the F7-8, but the grilles are the same as the 'lesser' trucks.

BobJ's interchange chart (and my recollections of previous discussions) shows F-7 and F-8's are wider than F-1/6.

48-50 F7-8 grilles are wider than the smaller trucks, and are also shared with the F5-6 COE, but the 51-2's are the same.
