Default 1998 4.6L with 5.4L 2v head swap intake manifold question

So I have a 1998 4.6L block with a 5.4L PI head swap from some 2001 Truck I believe. Since I couldn;t find any PI heads off a mustang, my only option was to pull them off a truck and from what I read they should be the same. The problem is that im running a 2002 Dorman PI intake manifold and for some reason the intake ports on the manifold are a bit off on the 5.4L PI heads.

Is there a special manifold or different manifold that needs to be run with these?

They aren't. Had one on my 99 Mustang GT. On one side I could barely get the spark plug socket to clear the intake.
