The Redback DSF003 is a header gasket listed to fit the Ford Falcon, Fairmont and Fairlane from 01/1966 to 09/2002. It seals the joint between the cylinder head and the header or manifold, at a Redback RRP of $7.99.

What is a header gasket and what does it do?

A header gasket is the flat seal clamped between the cylinder head and the exhaust header or manifold flange. Its job is to keep that joint gas-tight; the head is where an exhaust leak shows up once the original gasket hardens or crushes unevenly. It's a fitment and service item, not a performance part — it's renewed whenever the header comes off so the joint reseals cleanly. The DSF003 is the gasket Redback specifies across this long-running Ford family; no material or thickness is published in the listing, so that detail is confirmed on the part itself.

Will it suit my Falcon, Fairmont or Fairlane?

The DSF003 is listed to fit the Ford Falcon, Fairmont and Fairlane across a very long window, from January 1966 to September 2002. Because that span covers many engines, gasket fitment follows the engine's port pattern rather than the badge or year alone — so the key check is your exact engine and head. Treat it as 'listed to fit' and confirm your build with the workshop before ordering.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits header gaskets like the DSF003 as part of header or manifold work across the Illawarra. We replace it whenever the header is off, dress the mating faces, and torque the studs evenly so the new gasket seats and holds without blowing through.

Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.
