• Be EXTREMELY cautious if someone offers to buy your Bronco for more than your asking price and sight unseen. ESPECIALLY if the buyer is overseas. It's probably a scam.

Less than 50 miles on these. Ceramic coated inside and out. $325 + shipping
From the Manufacturers website

Long Tube Headers are designed specifically for the Early Bronco. These headers are MADE IN THE USA, and are backed by a lifetime warranty against manfufacturing defects. Our long tube headers provide more power and better sound than shorty headers. These headers were designed for the Early Bronco and therefore provide excellent clearance. It is even possible to remove & replace the starter without removing our headers. �3/8" mounting flanges means no warping �16 Gauge Steel Construction �1 1/2'' Primary Tubes �Dome Style Collectors (no need for collector gasket) For 289, 302 & 351W. Metalic Ceramic coating is bonded to the hedders with a strenght factor exceeding 10,000 PSI. This durability makes the finish resistant to abrasion and chipping. Unlike chrome plating, Metalic ceramic coating will not blue or fade and oil or grease stains are easily removed with polish or fine steel wool. New flange-style collectors, requires no gaskets! NOTE: While these headers are designed to eliminate as many clearance issues as possible, if you have a manual transmission, you will need to bend the clutch bell crank rod for clearance. For fuel-injected 5.0 engines, these headers will work with GT40 heads. They will NOT work with GT40P heads.

I did! They state that they are used! And for only $5 cheaper! Howcome they were only used 50 miles and then taken off? Who would pay a new price for a used product, it just doesnt sound right! I almost forgot, summit has free shipping!

At the very top of the classified section the announcement by the administer.


Only reply to ads if you're interested in buying. Don't give your opinions on value unless asked.

Lol. Nobody is upset man. There's been plenty of times when I've wanted to make comments on pricing. Just giving you a heads up on the rules.

1. Perhaps he didn't like the way that they sounded. Not that they are bad headers, but the note just isn't to his liking. Maybe he decided to swap in a transmission they didn't work with. Maybe... Any number of reasons. Tell me you never bought something and decided it was quite what you wanted.

2. You contend that they are used. Have you ever bought a "new" car from a dealership with more than 50 miles on it? Bet you didn't complain about the price or suggest that it was a used car. The seller is being upfront that they were "used," but also states they are in like new condition. I, for one, would buy these from him, rather than buy new from a vendor, even if the price were the same. For me, I would be helping out a bronco brother and getting the product I need at the same time. Win-Win.

Just because something doesn't come from the factory/store, doesn't mean it's quality has diminished. Likewise, there should be no expectation that a product be substantially marked down to sell.

Once an item is bought and used the value of said item immediately diminishes. One notable factor is that there is no warranty with a used item.

I don't consider it acceptable to ask full price for any used item unless it is a collector piece for which the value has increased.

FYI, I ordered these headers through Jet Hot coatings and had them ceramic coated there. I paid almost $400. I had them do the work because they have a great reputation in the coating world. I'm selling the headers only because I pulled the 351W when i sold my bronco. Now I'll be selling the motor as well.

Definitely important to say. That is a different product than what Hedman sells through retailers (which is what some may be assuming this is). The Jet Hot coating is MUCH more durable.

I'm not buying so I am probably breaking the rules by making comments, but to others: The ones sold by Jet Hot cost more and have one of Jet Hot's separately available coatings. The coated ones from Hedman (even the Elite's) have a less durable coating (that is sourced by Hedman elsewhere; judged less durable by me from experience with Jet Hot and separate experience with the direct-from Hedman coated Elite's) and then retailed through its distributors. I can't vouch for what is being sold here, but there are different ways to get a coated Hedman header for EB.
