The Redback DSF061 is a header gasket listed to fit the Ford Falcon, Fairlane and Fairmont from 03/1988 to 09/2002. It's the sealing gasket between the cylinder head and the header or manifold, with a Redback RRP of $17.59.

What is a header gasket and what does it do?

A header gasket is the flat seal that sits between the cylinder head and the exhaust header or manifold flange. Its job is simple but important: it keeps the joint gas-tight so exhaust doesn't leak at the head, which is where you'd otherwise get a tick or blow once the old gasket hardens. It's a service and fitment item rather than a performance part — when you fit a new header, or pull an existing one, this is the part that gets replaced. The DSF061 is the gasket specified by Redback for these Fords; no material or thickness is published in the listing, so that's confirmed on the part.

Will it suit my Falcon, Fairlane or Fairmont?

The DSF061 is listed to fit the Ford Falcon, Fairlane and Fairmont built between March 1988 and September 2002. That covers a broad span of the Falcon family, so the thing to confirm is your exact engine and head, since gasket fitment follows the port pattern rather than just the badge. Treat it as 'listed to fit' and check the exact build with the workshop before ordering.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies header gaskets like the DSF061 and fits them as part of header or manifold work across the Illawarra. We'd normally replace it whenever the header is off the head, clean the mating faces, and torque the studs evenly so the new seal holds.

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