Hedman getting into the game?
I saw this on Facebook, of all places:
"Hedman is about to realease a new series of LS1 engine swap hedders at the 2008 SEMA Show. You can see them at booth #22343"
What are the chances they'll pick us as one of their targets?
Anybody planning on going to the SEMA Show?

Re: Hedman getting into the game?
THAT would be nice... but somehow I (cynically) suspect that they'll duplicate the lineup that's already out there - 1st-gen F-bodies, early Novas, etc. etc. Sure hope I'm wrong though.
Who knows, if we were to individually contact them, they might make a note of it.

They already have LS1 block huggers (very pricey). In their "vehicles wanted" list, they include '96-'02 Camaro LS1. Alas, no '82-'92 Camaro with LS1. But, perhaps that means they've already done it.

Hey, who knows - maybe they're in the middle of developing swap headers (errr, "hedders")

Well, SEMA is over. Anybody have any idea? Nothing on their website that I can find.

Re: Hedman getting into the game?
Pace parts had a set of hedman of LS1 shorties listed for thirdgens in the last catalog I looked at.. there was no price listed, and they couldn't be found on the hedman website.
Conclude from that what you will.

Have never heard glowing reports about LS1 shorties.

I've gotten a tweak from the Facebook group, but no updates. I sent a message to the Hedman guy, no response.
