You'll need headers specifically for the '77 highboy as it's the only HB to come factory equipped with a 351/400.

The '67-'76 highboys only came equipped with the 360FE (or 300-6).

'77 is the split year for the highboy, it only had a 6 month production run, the midyear '77.5's are considerd lowboys.

Anything before serial #Y20,001 is a HB, after that is a lowboy, so yes, the headers will be different in the same '77 model year for the F250 4x4.

Not sure, i only work with FE's, you could ask "orangebeast" or "lostinfords" where the got their HB 351/400 headers (link below).
