Header question...390 in a 77

It would be the same to use 65-76 FE headers on my 77 with a 390 shouldnt it? Or would there be some unknown to me difference in the engine bay.

They only show to fit up to 76 because that is the last year that Ford installed the FE engines. The headers will fit 73-79 chassis.
