Hedman Hedders has been manufacturing quality headers in the USA since 1954, and they've been manufacturing Ford truck headers decades. Each set uses mild steel, smooth flowing, CNC mandrel bent tubes, that are hand-welded to ensure each pair is identical to the next. Hedman's unique, gasketless ball and socket collector design allows your exhaust system to bolt up to these Ford 7.5L (460 CID) headers, even if it is not perfectly aligned with the header collectors.
These HTC coated, MID-LENGTH TUBE, headers fit 1988-92 2WD and 1988-97 4WD Ford F150, F250 and F350 trucks (light-duty only) with a 7.5L (460 CID) E.G.R-equipped EFI powerplant. The smooth-flowing 1-3/4 in. tube design provides great exhaust flow to let your Ford F-Series truck's 7.5L engine breathe easy, and improve low-end torque. These headers have been tested, and granted an E.O. (executive order) number by C.A.R.B., making them 50-STATE LEGAL for use on the vehicles listed on the arb.ca.gov website. They fit column-shift, automatic transmission vehicles only, and are not designed for use on Super-Duty F-series trucks.
Each set includes a pair of gaskets, header flange bolts and collector bolts. No collector gasket is needed.
Hedman Hedders is so confident in the quality of its headers that these headers are factory backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty. These headers have a high temperature, POLISHED-SILVER ceramic finish that resists corrosion, and can withstand temperatures up to 1400 degree F. This finish is covered by a 5-year factory warranty, in addition to Hedman's standard lifetime header warranty.
- Handcrafted, Mild Steel Construction.
- The Mid-Length Tube Header Design Provides Significantly More Low and Mid-range Power than Cast Manifolds, and Provide Better Ground Clearance And Component Compatibility Than Long Tube Headers.
- Ball & Socket Collector Design requires No Gasket, and Allows For More Exhaust System Misalignment than Old School, Gasket-Style Header Collectors
- Includes All The Necessary Mounting Hardware, Gaskets and Reducers (exhaust adapters)
- Limted Lifetime Warranty On Construction, Five Year Warranty on Factory-Applied Header Coating!
- Proud To Say, Made In The USA, Since 1954!
