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") 
for 4-door tri-fives!

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.

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