Max Energy™…The Best Hand-Held Performance Tuner on the Market!

Max Energy Tuning extracts every bit of energy possible out of every molecule of fuel, giving you more miles at part-throttle and more power at wide-open throttle. In order to increase engine efficiency, horsepower and torque, our engineers first optimize the spark and fuel curves point by point over the entire RPM band. With the additional power and optimized transmission functions, drivers use less fuel to accelerate and maintain cruising speeds without the torque converter unlocking or transmission down-shifting. The results are maximum power and fuel mileage.

  • Optimized engine tuning for premium octane (+34 Hp, +19 Tq)
  • Lower or raise the top-speed limiter to match the speed rating of factory-approved high-performance tires
  • Speedometer/odometer correction for tire sizes from 24″-30″ & rear gear ratios from 2.56:1-5.13:1
  • Disable 1-4 skip shift (Corvette w/manual transmission)
  • Adjust rev limiter +/- 500 RPM in 100 RPM increments
  • Read, display & clear DTCs

Hedman’s Standard-Duty, Uncoated Headers are manufactured using 18-gauge, mandrel-bent primary tubes (some models built using thicker 16- or 14-gauge tubing) and 1/4 flanges (some models use 3/8″ flanges).

The factory black paint applied to uncoated headers is not hi-temp, and is for pre-installation protection only. For the ultimate in protection against the elements, we suggest Hedman’s Original HTC coating.

All Hedman street hedders are MADE IN THE USA and are backed by a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects!

 

Applications:

Chevrolet Camaro 1967-1987 (CID: 305, 350, 302, 400, 283, 327)

Chevrolet Nova 1969-1979 (CID: 305, 350, 302, 283, 400, 327)

The B&M Cast Aluminum Differential Cover was designed to strengthen the rear end by preventing case distortion, ring gear and cap bearing deflection. Constructed of A356.0-T6 aluminum, this rugged unit dissipates heat much faster than the stock factory unit to prolong the life of your ring and pinion gears. To increase durability and aesthetics without compromising heat dissipation, the cover has been coated with a U.S. military-grade (MIL-A-8625) black anodized finish. Additional features include an engraved B&M logo, added fluid capacity for better cooling, magnetic drain plug for catching ferrous metal particles, complete hardware, installation instructions and a one-year warranty.

Former Board Member Recognized for Invaluable Contributions

Thanking him for his years of service and support, Parts Pro parent company The AAM Group presented Ralph Accinno with a custom painting at a special dedication held during its recent Annual Membership Meeting. Accinno, retiring founder of Racer’s Equipment Warehouse in Rhode Island, provided many years of leadership on AAM’s Board of Directors and served as a tireless advocate for the group to affiliated vendors and other members.

AAM President Tim Odom commented, “We could not let Ralph leave AAM without a thank you. Among our members, Ralph was our most vocal supporter, and his endorsements always made a difference to AAM. He gave AAM meetings a unique character by way of his optimism, encouragement, infectious humor and even his occasional antics, which kept us on our toes. Fiercely loyal, Ralph set aside his own needs when the needs of the group or others were greater. I consider Ralph a personal friend, and I want to thank him personally for all he has done to mentor me in my role at AAM.”

L to R: John DeBalso (AAM Vice President of Purchasing and
