You need headers for our generation of truck. Summit sells house brand truck shorty headers for about $150. They are actually Pacesetter brand. Alot of people like them.

Yes you need truck specific headers, mustang headers will boltup to the motor(the 5.0 uses the same heads) but wil not mate with the truck Y pipe.

Same here. Bolted right up. I did use gibbson exhaust gaskets instead of the supplied gaskets. Just torque the new bolts to what pacesetter recomends, and you're good to go
