Need to know the weight difference

Does anyone know the weight difference between a 300 6cyl and the 302. The reason I am asking is because I am changing an 83 F150 2WD to a 4WD and have the front suspension from a truck that had a 302. Can I use these springs or will the truck look pigeon toed? \ /

I stumbled across some good info on the net and found the 300/6 weights more than the 302. 463 LBS for the 300 and 411 LBS for the year of 302 I have. My springs will be alright.

Thanks for your help!!
