I understand that my product doesn't always fit into the budget, but I would definitely go with a header made from Stainless Steel so you don't have to do the job twice and wind up spending more!
Mild steel headers work just fine performance wise but will rust away within two winters. They work well on a car that doesn't get driven in salt or snow...or rain but a winter is really hard on thin wall mild steel tubing. We offer a lifetime warranty on material and craftmanship
Also, I would try get a set of Long Tubes rather than shorties. The power gains are much more substantial and you certainly won't have ground clearance issues in a truck

They flow better than stock HOWEVER they aren't long enough to actually create any kind of scavenging effect so you just don't get the power increases we feel are necessary to justify the expense.
Shorty headers are a compromise, generally for space or ground clearance. You should have plenty of each in an F150!
