These headers are designed for both maximum performance from a set of shorty headers, as well as, easier installation. They are manufactured using 100% 304 stainless steel construction.
Vehicle designs over the past few years have been as lack lustered in curb appeal as new car sales have been. Fortunately, there are a few bright stars that have found there way through the clouds of monotonous, cookie cutter car designs. The 2010 Chevrolet Camaro is one of these bright spots in the current day automotive slump.
One of the most anticipated cars in decades, the 2010 Camaro delivers an awesome looking, extremely muscular body style that complements the muscular 6.2L V8 neatly tucked under the hood. While the factory works hard to keep up with high demand and get cars on the street, aftermarket manufacturers on the cutting edge are hard at work designing performance products that make this great vehicle even better.
Just like the Chevy Camaro is the iconic car for the muscle car era, Hedman Hedders is the iconic header for them. Hedman Hedders manufactures quality headers for just about any Camaro ever made, and the engineers in the R & D Department were not about to skip a generation.
Hedman Headers now manufactures a set of 304 stainless steel headers for the new 2010 Camaro SS 6.2L. They are manufactured with 1-3/4” diameter, 16 gauge, 304 stainless primary tubes, and bolted-on using thick 3/8” 304 stainless flanges. They easily bolt up to the factory exhaust, and since the catalytic converters are retained, these headers will be street legal (once EO # is received). These headers meet, then exceed the high expectations of even the most hardened muscle car enthusiast. “I immediately noticed an increase and broadening of the engine’s torque curve after the headers were installed,” comments, Mike Spagnola, owner of the WD-40 2010 Camaro SS used to prototype the headers. He added, “The new pipes gave the Camaro’s exhaust an awesome rumble sound. Nothing overpowering though. I can’t wait for the next dyno day to see how much power was picked up.”
Most stainless exhaust products are manufactured using less durable 409 stainless because it is cheaper. Although more expensive, Hedman has chosen to use 304 stainless steel for all of it’s stainless headers because of the material’s superior durability, heat and corrosion resistance. And, as icing on the cake, Hedman offers all of it’s stainless steel headers with or without Hedman’s HTC Ceramic-Metallic Coating.
Hedman’s 2010 Camaro headers weren’t designed with performance improvement as the only goal. These headers were also thoughtfully designed for an easy install. In an era when you need to practically tear the entire engine compartment apart to install a set of headers, Hedman’s design slips in from the top with minimal part removal and no messing with motor mounts.
