Did you order headers for a 5.4, or did you actually find some that specified that they were for a 4.6? Linky?

5.4 headers will fit... it was a pain. i had to unbolt ***** motor mounts and lift it up and it slid right in... w/ a little force... but well worth it

Yes 5.34 headers will fit, as far as the egr i blocked it off and had my tune written to delete it, and o2 sensors, the headers came with wire to extens the passengers side to make it long enough, and i deleted the rears too becuz i dont have cats... im in oklahoma so i dont have to do emitions... and i used factory manifould gaskets from felpro i got from autozone. they work better then the paper ones that come with the headers...

I know its a lil late but hope i helped
