I would get outboard headers for it. L&L or headman make them. You will be better off.

They did not put a 351m in a 76. I would say 771/2-79 F150 would work on a F250 4x4. Ebay!!

The motor is not set any higher the axles are set lower, in a highboy so I think they would work fine.

Headers that go over the frame into the wheelwell. I have seen some on some of these trucks they look good. Look at my 2 wheel drive in my gallery. If you don't know how just right click on my name, then left click on gallery.
