Hedman 69010 Installed pics

There have been lots of header questions lately. I went with Hedman #69010 from Jegs. They were around $200 fron JEGS. I painted with VHT, but didn't cure them right, so thats why they are peeling in places. Thet clear great and have more room than the pic angle makes it seem at the heater box and motor mounts. You will need shorter plugs, I used NGK UR5 on my 383. Truck is an automatic with column shift. The pipes are completely tucked in the frame, which was essential for my bagged truck. They have a ball and socket type collector, I eventually had to put jam nuts on to keep the collector bolts from coming loose. Here are some pics, I left them big to show more detail. They bolted on with no other modification, buy driver side plugs need to be in first (at least with the NGK's.)

Re: Hedman 69010 Installed pics

So to do a plug change the one header will have to be unbolted from the head?

Thats interesting, tell me more please? I am guessing it moves the engine more forward or rearward.

it look s like he has the towers moved to the foward two holes on the frame.
better clearance for the dist. but worse if youre running electric fan assy. ask me how i know its a tight fit. those headers tuck nicely in the frame.
when using the paint you used, (VHT) whats the curing procedure?

I have had great results with vht. The key is prep sand blasting is the best way to ensure a great bond
