Hedman's 50-State Legal Shorty Headers for 2011-14 5.0L Mustangs

To those car builders that live outside of California, the prospect of dealing with CARB’s restrictions on performance parts can sound daunting and tiresome. The truth is–it is! So it’s great when companies like Hedman come along and address the issue head on. These new shorty headers for 2011-14 5.0L Mustangs pass muster with emissions standards, while also delivering far better flow than stock for far longer.

Official Release:

Fans of the popular 2011-2014 Ford Mustang have rarely heard the words “50,” “state” and “legal” in the same sentence, especially when talking about performance exhaust products. Thanks to ever-increasing emissions regulations, Mustang owners have had very few options to let their Coyote motors breathe without running afoul of Johnny Law. Now with the introduction of Hedman Hedders’ 50-state legal headers for 2011-2014 S197 Mustang 5.0, enthusiasts have the tools they need to improve their cars exhaust flow, and allow the stock engine and all its bolt-on performance parts to work at peak efficiency.

Hedman’s newly designed shorty headers for the S197 5.0 Mustang are created with power and efficiency in mind, and are engineered to give your vehicle the maximum amount of breathing room without violating your state’s emissions laws. 50-state legal under C.A.R.B. E.O.# D-167-34 and classified as a direct replacement for the factory exhaust manifolds, these new headers are anything but stock. Not only do they help improve combustion efficiency, they look great too. Manufactured out of 100% T-304 Stainless Steel, Hedman’s S197 headers feature sturdy 16-guage mandrel bent 1 ¾-inch primaries with bullet-proof 3/8-inch thick flanges that provide a solid connection to your Mustang’s engine block.

2011-14 Mustang 5.0 headers (Part # 82726) are finished in Hedman’s HTC high-temperature silver ceramic coating for a long lasting bright finish that works to keep more heat in the header tubes for faster exhaust speeds and lower under hood temperatures. Also available in Hedman’s New BLACK MAXX Black Ceramic coating. Mounting hardware, instructions and the mandatory E.O sticker for your engine compartment are all included for an easy and LEGAL installation.
