Differences in Strut Mounts

Are Boss 302 Strut mounts different that V6/GT. I get different numbers in online searches but of course there are still numbers missing.
Also if they are different would they be like using the GT500 on the 05-10 struts?
Numbers found, I included the Shelby numbers I found just to show they were different, the other 2 numbers are both for a 2013.
Stock 5R3Z18183A
Boss CR3Z18183B
Shelby 8R3Z18183B

Yes. The Boss strut mounts have stiffer bushings. I don't notice a difference, but I buy the Boss mounts just the same. They're not that much more money.

They are not like GT500 strut mounts, as they will still fall apart if you do not disassemble the strut carefully. I do not know how they compare in terms of stiffness.

That is kind of what I was figuring, just wanted to make sure I was not seeing things.
