Has anyone used these headers

Has anyone used these headers in thier Maverick if so what do you think. good product?

 

Brand ? part #?

the only ones known to work are the 88400 Hedman shorties,
and the doug thorleys.

 

or Hooker 6901's

Of course they're not shorties.

 

There isn't much difference between those shorties and your stock manifolds.
Why spend the money?

 

can you get me a brand name and part#?
just looking at them i would say there's a world of diff!

 

dont have stock manifolds going from 6 to 8 !

 

thier on ebay i typed maverick headers they were first on list!

 

i'm thinking i might give them a try

 

they are the hedmans

and jegs/summit have them for less.

 

jegs dont carry them- summit wants $449

 

yes they do...


http://www.jegs.com/i/Hedman/500/88400/10002/-1
$153.99

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/HED-88400/
$159.99

 

The Hedman headers use a flange - the ones the OPshowed had a ball joint for the pipes - not a flange.

 

if you go to the ebay link you'll see its the hedmans....

the ebay seller probably just buys them and resales them for a higher price.

and like most sellers they just use a generic pic.

look at the ad


[SIZE=-2]"Fit standard 429-460 heads only. "

[/SIZE][SIZE=-2]"Due to engine location, will not fit 1970-72 Cutlass Supreme, Hurst, SX or Convertibles.[/SIZE]




i doubt that the ones he'll sell you will have a ball joint...

 

thanks for clearing that up! i had summit on the phone and thats what iwas quoted.

 

info like this is why i ask. but checking these links both list falcon,fairlane,mustang and mercury cougar no mention of the Maverick for the 88400 but price is a lot better! hope no one buys from this fella trying to make a buck sittin on his A$$
