Where to get headers?

Where's the best place to get headers for my 1992 302 F-150? I'm used to buying Mustang parts from various Mustang specialty stores. But I'm not used to buying truck performance parts.

just my two cents but it all depends on what you are looking for. the best price i found for a set of JBA nickel-chrome shorty headers was Performancecombos.com $359.00. There are cheaper headers out there but everyone seems to end up complaining about fit and constant leaks. from what i have read Macpreformance.com makes a desent low end header for about 200.00 If you are going for a classic longtube header there are some other options. I would steer clear of any header that is not coated with a nickel/chrome or ceramic unless you plan on replacing them every couple of years due to internal rusting.
i got alot of info from dealers in the musle mustang and fast fords magizane, most parts shops in there would order or stock truck parts also.

I got my Heddman long tubes (jet hot coated) for $255 from Summit Racing. Fit and finish are awesome.

Don't forget the Doug Thorley Tri-y full length headers for awesome fit, awesome gaskets, and awesome flanges for leak free installation. You can even remove your starter without touching the headers!!!! That's more than you can say for a lot of the headers out there.
