Default header problem maybe??

i was just running all my numbers today that i could find on my car/parts and seeing if they were what they were supposed to be. anyways i bought the car like it is, and it has dynomax headers on it. the model number is 87705, yet when i look up these headers they come up for a camaro/firebird. everything on my car is ford so i know its not a chevy engine . so how will these headers fit onto a ford 5.0 arent the exhaust ports set up different, and could this be a potential problem with my lagging mustang???

So what are youre headers doing leaking? It could be exhaust manifold gaskets could be gone, They may need to be replaced.

I think thats just how they come up. Since Ive been on this forum, Ive seen at least 5 people say that they ran the number on their headers and they came up for a camaro/firebird.
