What is a header gasket and where does it sit?

A header gasket is the seal between the cylinder head and the header or exhaust manifold, the part that stops exhaust gas escaping at that joint. It's a wear item, normally replaced any time the manifold or headers come off. The DSF009A is the gasket only, not a header. There's no diameter or system spec to quote because it's a sealing component; the workshop confirms it matches your engine's port pattern.

Will it suit my Calais or Commodore?

It's listed to fit the Holden Calais and Commodore from 1986 to 1988. Engines and port patterns varied in that period, so the exact engine matters for the right gasket. Tell us what your Holden runs and we'll check the DSF009A against the listing before ordering.

When would I need this gasket?

You'd use a header gasket like this when fitting headers, refitting a manifold, or chasing an exhaust leak at the head. It's an inexpensive part that's worth renewing whenever the joint is opened up rather than reusing a compressed old seal.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits header gaskets like the DSF009A as part of header or manifold work in the Illawarra. We clean and check the head face is flat, then fit the new gasket before torquing the manifold or headers back down. Book the Holden in and we'll match the gasket to your engine.

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