Mustang shorties have been used but you're not going to get the nod from mfg'r listings

why not long tube? pretty sure you can still find some for 302

and have you looked at / tried Sanderson's ?

Factory Mustang 5.0 Fox body shorty headers fit with a little trimming work IF you have a Ford steering box. You can then add a mustang off-road H-pipe with balance tube and finish with some short pipe to mufflers and Caprice tailpipes.

If you have a Saginaw box, it won't fit. Not even close. Saginaw box is bigger/fatter.
