Long tube header selection

Hey all! Trying to pin down a set of long tube headers for my 1988 f150 351w c6 tranny. Ideally I'd like stainless, but at this point any will do. My problem is finding them. Hooker would be awesome, but they don't make long tubes for my truck. Any others I see, fitment is a gamble.

anyone have a hooker part number for long tubes with confirmed fitment?

if not, what other brand/model long tubes will fit?

thanks a bunch!

I have them on my 302/AOD, have for about 15 years. No PN handy but mine are pretty small primary, 1.5x2.5" believe they are just the Comps not the Super Comps.

yeah but the 351 has a taller deck height. Not sure how much this affects things.

I looked for them on my 408 build in my 95 F250. I could not find any that I was happy with so I purchased the parts to build my own from Stainless Headers. Complete with .5" flanges.
