exhaust headers

I have a 63 Falcon I am putting a 302 into. Since this is the same engine compartment and basic engine Mustangs from 64 to 67 are using , is there a set of headers that any one has used that will fit without using a hammer of torch?

Re: exhaust headers

The 63 is very similar to mustangs from 65-66..The 67 mustang has a much wider engine compartment..The falcon is slightly narrower overall than the mustang due to the shape of the stiffening brace on the shock towers..The falcons is round where the mustang is flat so it takes up a little bit more room..I believe this question was just asked in the falcon forums not too long ago so you might want to check there for header recommendations.
