The Redback DSF061 is a header gasket listed to fit the Ford Falcon and Fairlane built from early 1988 through to late 2002. It is the seal between the cylinder head and the header or exhaust manifold flange, not an exhaust system in its own right.

What is a header gasket and what does it do?

A header gasket is the flat seal clamped between the engine’s exhaust port face and the header (extractor) or manifold flange. It contains the hot exhaust joint so the system stays sealed and leak-free. It is a wear item, renewed whenever the flanges are unbolted to fit extractors or service the engine. The DSF061 covers that joint on the later Falcon and Fairlane.

Which Fords does the DSF061 suit?

It is listed to fit the Ford Falcon and Fairlane from early 1988 to late 2002 per the listing — the generation after the early Falcon this part series also serves. The right gasket still depends on your exact port pattern and flange, so confirm the exact build with the workshop before ordering.

Is this part road legal?

A header gasket is a sealing part, not an emissions component, so it does not change a vehicle’s road compliance by itself. It seals the joint between the head and the headers or manifold. The legality question sits with the system it seals against, not the gasket.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits and seals header joints in-house across the Illawarra. We match the gasket to your port face, check the flanges are flat, and torque the joint evenly so it seals cleanly. At an RRP of $17.59 it is an inexpensive part well worth renewing whenever the headers come off this generation of Falcon or Fairlane. Send your build and we’ll confirm fitment.

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