There are 3 headers currently for sale LOL that will fit a 4wd gen II Ranger or Explorer (95-01 Explorer, 98-11 Ranger)
Torque Monster
OBX (torque monster knock offs)
Maximizer (torque monster knock offs)

No other header will bolt in place, fitting the engine bay and the factory exhaust down pipes

No there are no other shorty headers or long tube for that matter that will fit.
You can MAKE some shorty headers and some factory 302 manifolds fit, but you have to make them fit. IE notch a frame rail, custom make down pipes, clear the oil pan front driveline and t case....etc

So yes Torque Monsters and the copies are the only bolt in chioce
TM headers gained more then 24HP bolted onto a STOCK 5.0L Explorer
So even through they are expensive (coming down) they are the best option.

Also the TM headers have been tested to about 420 HP so they flow pretty well even though they are not equal length tubes and they hug the block so much, they still allow you to make good power.

I am a big fan of the TM header and design, I am a little biast since my BII was the test mule for the first sets of the conversion headers
