Hedman headers?


Are headman headers any good? I think they are long tube 1" 5/8 and 3" out will they help power wise?

they are not as bad as mac headers but if you want decent headers
you should get bbks. why do you want the 3" outlet instead of the
stock style ball flange? Are you making a custom h pipe?You should invest in some bbk long tube headers instead along with shorter h pipe.

Long tubes will give you more HP and TQ than shorty headers

I have a set of ceramic Hedman long tubes on my 302 in my 68. Very good quality for the price.

My MACs leak but only because of a broken stud and i cant get a bolt tight. Got some new heads today so it will be fixed shortly. If you have a manual, get BBK. I only got MAC because i have an AOD.
