Default anyone used Exhaust Manifolds on a Mustang?

I've got dynatech swap headers on my Mustang, but putting a stock motor in my Fairmont for a driver. I tried truck manifolds and that's not gonna work.

Anyone found any that will work?

I've seen some use the 2010+ Camaro manifolds, but you'll have to get a different steering shaft as the stock rag joint will interfere.

I plan on running 351w swap headers and massaging the tubes and having LS flanges welded on.

I tried the 351 headers on this car already. Talk about a nightmare. It may work with some transmissions, but with my TH350 not gonna happen. Not only were the # 5&7 tubes gonna have to be moved but the collector was right against the transmission pan. Lot of tweaking to be done.

im using the 2010 camaro ss headers and they fit great on my 99 mustang, only had to clearance the drivers side flange a bit cause it rubbed on my steering shaft.. still does too on max right lol i need to pull that side and clearance it some more i did it when it was in the car and could hardly get the grinder in there
