Can you swap the leaf springs from an F body (Volare) into an A body (valiant)? or are they a different length?

F body springs are waaaay longer than A body ones. I just got rid of a set of A body ones from a 65 Cuda last weekend. Have 2 sets of F body ones
sitting here if you wanna play around with a set. Seems to me I remember reading something somewhere that the F body was a better car to build than an A body and longer springs was listed as a "feature" of the F body. There was a magazine article comparing the A body to the F body a while back,,, it was this magazine's contention that an F body was better. (The longer springs would be a drawback, I would think, if you are drag racing--- longer spring, more wrapup and wheelhop)
