You don’t have a V6. You have an in-line 6. I’m not sure that there are major differences in the radiators, but they do have different part numbers, I’ll be interested to see the answer to this myself.

True I don’t have a v6, I don’t have a straight 6 anymore either. I put a Ford 5.0 V8 in my coupe and want to try my best to use a stock like fitted radiator if I can. Haven’t tried it but don’t want to chance it with my existing radiator. Would feel better with upgrade if possible

Say what now? 
which ford motor?
Links to pics of your car please, sounds very cool.
I wonder if anyone here knows if the V8 radiators actually have more capacity, or are simply fitted with different end caps to accommodate different locations for the hoses.
