351w headers for a Mustang?

I'm having a hell of a time finding 5.8 headers for a stang, to use in my swap, into an 88 Thunderbird
Anybody know what brands will work?
How about shorties vs. long tubes? (car will be an auto for awhile)
Any recomendations as far as what brands are better than others?

Edit-I just came across the BBK shorty headers...nice!
'98 Explorer 5.0
'20 Malibu (I know, Chevy, but, 35MPG. Let's go brandon, eh)

I believe MAC makes long tube and shorty headers for 351 conversions.

The BBK's worked nicely on my buddy's TC...should be fine on your 'Stang.
