They won't fit a 58. 60-64 frames are wider.
Sanderson makes shorty headers.

Go to FPA, they make shorties for an FE in a '57. I have an early set of FPA tri-wye that were for a 1967-68 FE Mustang. They fit reasonably well (I had to raise the engine about 3/8" on the passenger side). I don't think the Sandersons will fit...not at all sure though.

The long 427 headers wont work but the 390 406 shorty headers will. I have had several 57 fords with fe motors and shorty headers.
