I believe this has been asked before, and the answer is no. Because of the way the engine and components sit, a set of 351w headers won't fit on one side. (I forget which) so you have to buy a set of 351w and a set of 302 and use 1 from each set. Or get someone to fab you up a custom set.

351w swap for a fox body mustang fit great!! I bought the bbk brand. 302 shortie dump to close to the frame for my taste.
