Default Exhaust/header question help!

Okay, I just got this car not long ago, and it came with Borla headers and strait pips nothing more. Well I wanted to get it inspected someday heh, and I wanted to know if I went to the junk yard and got original mustang 5.0 h-pipe would it fit on the borla headers or are they in diff. area's from the original headers? Just looking for the cheapest route atm. And don't want to really buy original headers if I don't have to. Hope the question is clear enough, and thanks for anyone who has time to reply.

if you borlas have O2 sensor bungs you can leave them on. also, for the rest of the exhaust you'll probably need cats and mufflers. i'd look on ebay before i went to a junkyard

the headers don't have the holes for the sensors they are on the pipes them selfs but I would think original h-pipes have the holes for the o2 sensors right?

And you said that the original mustang h-pipe will attach to the borla headers?

no, that catback will replace the h pipe. if you have o2 sensors on the car now, you're fine. and if you get that MAC catback system you wont need the original H pipe. I think you will need catalytic convertors though. they dont look like they're included
