Hedman Hedders [2] is no stranger to the ever growing LS Swap market, but this year at the PRI Show [3] they introduced their new line-up of LS Swap headers and their new Muscle Rods line of bolt-on LS Swap components. Currently there are over 25 different swap header applications available with more being added as the demand calls for.
With many musclecar, hot rod, and performance applications making the shift over to the LS family of engines, Hedman Hedders, Hustler, and the new line up of Muscle Rod bolt-in parts are here to really help the DIY installer with completely engineered installation kits.
We met up with Vic Wood from Hedman and Jeff Georges, the Engineer behind the Muscle Rods line to discover the ins and outs of the LS Swap line. In addition to the complete line of headers offered for a wide range of applications from ’55 Chevy all the way through the newer 2000s. The Muscle Rods line features complete systems offering bolt-in trans mounts, engine mounts, frame mounts, rearend and driveline mounts and all of the needed hardware for the DIY guy to swap in any series of LS engine into his Chevy of choice.
