New strut... change ride height?

I'm considering buying a set of struts/springs from a 99 Solara V6 to put on my 98 Camry LE (4 cyl)...

Are the springs different for a 4 cylinder and 6 cylinder? Will the ride height change? Will they even fit? Seller says they would, and I don't see why they wouldn't. But I don't want the ride height to be altered, in case I just do the fronts now and save the rears until later down the road.

I'm pretty sure it will change the ride height. Some people that buy the same aftermarket springs say the drop is different for the car depending on if they have the V6 or i4.

It's the same part for either one, so I guess the stock ride height is different based on the engine?
