Uncoated Engine Swap Headers for Installing a Ford 289-302 in 1982-97 2WD Ranger

Engine Swap Headers for SB Ford 260-302 into 1982-97 2WD (only) FORD RANGER; 1-1/2 in. MID-LENGTH Tube, 2-1/2 in. Ball/Socket Collector- UNCOATED Mild Steel


Hedman Hedders has been manufacturing quality headers in the USA since 1954, and they've been manufacturing Ford truck headers decades. Each set uses mild steel, smooth flowing, CNC mandrel bent tubes, that are hand-welded to ensure each pair is identical to the next. Hedman's unique, gasketless ball and socket collector design allows your exhaust system to bolt up to these SB Ford, Ranger swap headers, even if it is not perfectly aligned with the header collectors.

These uncoated mild steel, MID-LENGTH TUBE headers are designed specifically for swapping a Ford Small Block 260-302W engine into a 1982-1997 Ford Ranger 2WD (only) truck. These headers fit both automatic and manual, floor-shift transmissions. The smooth 1-1/2 in., tube design provides good exhaust flow to let your Ford Windosor Block engine breathe better, and produce excellent low-end torque and horsepower.

These headers are uncoated, and ship from the factory with a temporary black paint that will burn off when submitted to normal operating temperatures. For protection against the element and lower underhood temperatures, these headers are also available with a silver or black ceramic-metallic finish.

Each set includes a pair of gaskets, header flange bolts and collector bolts. No collector gasket is needed.

Hedman Hedders is so confident in the quality of its headers that these headers are factory backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
