Question Which Headers?

I'm needing some help on a project of mine, I'm building my 94' F-150, I'm dropping a '72 460ci out of a Ford LTD in it and I was wondering what I have to do about headers, what headers do I need? Not what brand but what application? For a truck or for a car; since the motor came out of a car; I'm assuming I can get headers for a truck since that what it is going in and the 460 motor is the same as any truck motor. Also if there is anything you guys can think of that may be difficult in doing this motor swap I'd appreciate it, I know I have to get a different oil pan. Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks.

Which Headers?

Do you have rack and pinion steering or does it still have the steering box bolted to the side of the frame? I used a set of hedmann headers for a 74-79 2WD part # HED-89140 in my 64 F-100. They fit with about 1 1/2 inch clearance around the steering box. Just a thought.
