385 Series Engine Swap Shorty Headers

The Hedman 89236 engine swap headers are specifically designed to simplify the installation of Ford's popular FE and 385-series big block engines into the 1954-1972 Ford F-100 and F-150 truck chassis. Engineered as shorty headers, they offer a lower profile than traditional long tubes, aiding in fitment within the engine bay. The use of 16-gauge steel and thick 5/16-inch flanges ensures durability, even under demanding driving conditions. A key feature is Hedman's integrated ball-and-socket style flange collector, which creates a secure, gasket-free seal to prevent exhaust leaks. This particular set, part number 89236, comes with a silver HTC high-temperature ceramic-metallic coating. The headers are designed for 429 and 460 cubic inch 385-series engines equipped with factory-style heads. They are compatible with 1954-1972 2WD Ford F-100 and F-150 trucks. Mounting hardware, gaskets, and installation instructions are included for a straightforward installation process. Hedman guarantees these headers for life, with the HTC coating covered for five years.
