They are hedman's

They are for 4WD but I think they could be made to fit.

I have a set of those on my pulling truck and I think they should fit on a two wheel drive. You might need to redo a shock mount or something like that. I loaned mine to a friend to try on his F-150 4x4 and they fit fine. I think we had to loosen the steering colume under the dash and pull it up some so they wouldn't hit the steering shaft. Here are some pic's. My truck has a 78 F-250 frame.

that is a nice looking truck ghb. Looks to me that with a little modification the headers should work.

I have always like that truck, IMO greenhighboy has one of the best looking trucks around and did a great job on it.

I checked out all of the videos but Richland was my favorite. Looked like you could pull that sled all day.

That was one of my best pulls and the first of six wins last year. That type of sled doesn't put any wieght on you till the end and that track is down hill so if your geared high you can run close to 20 mph. Fords were outnumbered that night and the Fords took home all the money.

All it takes is one Ford!
Love how the chebbies were going up in smoke... And also how they looked like they were shaking themselves apart at all seams! Flimsy garbage, they are!

Your truck sounds awesome and pulls like a freight train. How many RPM are you pushing when you pull? 6000?

It always turns at least 7500 rpm. The richland pull it turned 7800 and the Harrison pull it was turning 8-8200. The Harrison video was my second pull of the night. I took the exhaust off and jumped up a class, the track was pure sand. I had to watch the tach both pulls and never could open it up all the way. I have the rev limiter set at 8200 and hit it a few times on my first pull.

I had the Chevy videos on there just to show how some people don't know when to let off the gas.


Again thanks for the compliments.

Does it ever run hot with that radiator ? I had to go 4 row Super Cooler with my mild built 460.
