Hedman Mid Length

[softballnrd27]

Has anyone used the Hedman Husler mid-length LS swap headers on a squarebody?
I'm looking at header options and I don't want to spend $500+ to get headers and these look like a viable option. I am pretty low as well so I think these will help me keep my exhaust tucked away.
Any other options for the lowered squarebody that keeps the collectors up in the frame rails?

I used a set of Hooker streetrod shorties, on my 69 LS swap...Should also work on the square body trucks. painted , the headers were around $ 250, plus a set of stainless mandrel tubes ($90 through Speedway Motors). They tuck up tight, & will fit mechanical clutch linkage ....if you need to go that route. Longhorn

If you're going to consider any shorty type header I'd just run ls3 manifolds. You should be able to find some for around $100 and just get them coated at your local shop.

Mine isn't a square body but you can see how tight they hug the block...

I'm considering some pacesetter headers for 99-06 truck. I had a set of 99-06 Calspeed headers in my hand and they were very close to fitting

I just purchased these exact headers to go on my 87 ls1 swap. I will let you know how they do once I get them in.

I've got the Hedman 73-87 LS mid's in my '66. I trimmed my rail a small amount because unless I go with solid mounts or a motor plate, my junk torques itself just close enough to the rail to make me nervous. If your ok with 1/8th clearance, then thats not required.
