    Is anybody using Hedman Elite headers #88308...Ya i know most people use Hooker 6901 on there 302's but I have never been thrilled with Hookers construction, 5/16 flanges and 16 gauge tubing. I would prefer the 3/8 thick flanges and 14 gauge tubing of the Hedman.

    I'm about to. Got a set on back-order from Summit. I ordered the coated ones. I'll post you when I get them on.

    Just installed the ceramic coated in my 302 1970 Maverick. Fit like a glove and no problems..

    no power steering and I have home=made engine mounts that may be different than stock. When I built the car (in 1982, I6 200 cid) no one I knew had a V8 1970 Maverick and this wonderful (?) internet was not around. So, out came the cutting torch and in went the motor mounts! Scott

    Had mine on backorder from PAW and Summitt for three weeks. Called Jegs and had them the same week! They have/had four sets of the coated in inventory. Scott
