Hedman

whtpny · September 21st, 2007, 02:46 AM

I believe I've found a nice deal on some long tubes, but there's a catch. They are new (sold the stang they were to be installed on), gaskets are included, etc etc.. but.. The owner no longer has the original box and is unsure about how to determine product number or nething so he can give me some specs on them. They are made by Hedman. What do you guys suggest?

whtpny · September 21st, 2007, 05:43 PM

bump for any suggestions? i just found out that theyre painted and not coated.. how much do muffler shops charge to put a coating on headers?

ChrisJ · September 21st, 2007, 06:01 PM

I would pass on them bro unless you are for sure they are for 99-04...

Ceramic coating is not cheap at all either...

How much is going to let you get them for?

what kind of stang were they going to be installed on before he sold it? may seem a little silly to ask, but if he bought them for a car different from yours, they probably won't fit your car.

whtpny · September 21st, 2007, 11:27 PM

they are for a 99-04 2v 4.6.. he bought em a while back and never installed them before he ended up selling the car..

its an auction and right now its cheap.. but i usually follow an item i want to the last few minutes to see if the price is still good for me haha

I would try to find some coated ones if I were you, because like Chris said, coating isn't cheap at all.

how much does it cost? i could've swore that i read on here somewhere that shops can do it for like 75 bucks

It depends on where you go. You would have to call your local shops, and see what they charge. I know around here it was pretty expensive, because my boy got his headers coated for his 5.0, and it cost like $150.00 or so. And imo, I rather just find some that are pre-coated, with a warranty, because alot of times if you modify something like headers, they will void your warranty on you for doing that.

however much the winning bid ends up being.. right now its a fair bit below 100, plus shipping of course

02StangGToWNEr · September 22nd, 2007, 02:09 AM

Thats pretty cheap then, but how much is the shipping & handling charges then???

ChrisJ · September 22nd, 2007, 01:49 PM

What type of collector flange does it have? 3 bolt or 2 bolt?

it's hard to tell, heres a picture:

00vabchgt · September 22nd, 2007, 06:25 PM

i assume 3 bolt is going to be better than 2?

ChrisJ · September 22nd, 2007, 09:43 PM

2 bolt is what most midpipes use...

You would have to use a hedman midpipe or have another midpipe modified to 3 bolt...

That's right. See the things above the headers in the pic? They have three bolts and they go on where the headers connect to the mid pipe.
