What makes Hedman Hedders’ new long-tube headers for S-10 small-block V8 special? They have a one-piece, in-frame design that facilitates installation, unlike many other competing products.

These provide higher performance than cast manifolds or short-tube headers. They feature 16-gauge mild-steel primary tubes, stout 3/8” flanges, and Hedman’s gasket-less ball/socket-style collector. You can get these tubes uncoated, in polished silver, and in satin-black ceramic-metallic coated (Black Maxx) to fit the overall look and feel of your ride.

The 69030 gives users another high-performance header option from Hedman, one that offers more torque for stroker applications, particularly in high-RPM WOT situations.

Features

  • For S-10/S-15 small-block V8.
  • One-piece, in-frame design for an easier installation.
  • 16-gauge mild steel.
  • Three finishes available.
