Hedman Hedders Headers, Exhaust Manifolds, Exhaust Systems and Mufflers
Hedman Hedders, began as a one man shop in 1954. Bob Hedman, founder of Hedman Hedders, sold his highly sought-after exhaust tubes to fellow racers on the salt flats of the Mojave Desert. But, what started out as a way to make a few bucks to pay for Bob’s racing hobby, quickly turned into the premier header manufacturer for both the racing and street header marketplaces. Originally designed for straightline drag racers, word spread quickly about Hedman’s reputation for building headers that gave you the best boost in power for your dollar. It wasn’t long before Hedman Hedders was the brand of choice among racing’s elite engine builders, racers and race series. Familiar names like Don Garlits, Warren Johnson, Shirley Muldowney, Bob Chandler and his BIG FOOT Race Team, and the IROC series.
Hedman Hedders constantly reshapes itself to meet environmental requirements and incorporates computer technology to ensure that its products offer the best performance improvement.

Mid-Pipe, H-Pipes, X-Pipes, Y-Pipes & Off-Road Race Pipes
What is a mid-pipe?
The mid-pipe is the section of your exhaust system that runs between the exhaust manifold or header and your muffler, or between your catalytic converter and your muffler. Mid-pipes often improve exhaust flow to increase horsepower and fuel economy.
What is a crossover pipe exhaust?
Crossover pipes, such as the H-Pipe, X-Pipe and Y-Pipe, help balance the exhaust pulses from either side of the engine on a V-shape block. This results in a smoother exhaust flow, which can improve horsepower and fuel efficiency.
How are Y-pipes different than X-pipes and H-pipes?
While the Y-Pipe is similar in design to the X-pipe, the Y-pipe joins exhaust gasses together into one pipe as it flows through to the muffler. Conversely, X-pipes and H-pipes most often flow through a dual exhaust all the way to the muffler.
What is an off-road mid-pipe?
While it sounds self-explanatory, an off-road mid-pipe may have different meanings for those of us to like to spend our time in the dirt and mud, far away from concrete and asphalt. Technically and legally, off-road means the mid-pipe is not legal for street use, and will not pass emissions tests in most states.
