Unleash the true performance of your classic Oldsmobile with Hedman’s Long-Tube Headers. Engineered specifically for 1968–1976 Olds 442, Cutlass, and F85 models running the Oldsmobile 400, 425, or 455 cubic-inch V8s. These headers are part of Hedman’s street series. They deliver improved exhaust flow, throttle response, and horsepower for serious street performance or track applications.
Crafted from 18-gauge mild steel, the headers feature 1.75” primaries and a 3” ball-and-socket collector, ensuring leak-free connections without needing gaskets or collector flanges. The HTC polished silver ceramic-metallic coating not only looks great under the hood but also reduces underhood temps and resists corrosion for long-term durability.
Each set includes gaskets, hardware, reducers, and clamps—everything needed for a smooth installation. These are ideal for modified vehicles and dedicated race builds.
