Redback Header Gasket
Category: Extractors and headers


The Redback DSF157 is a header gasket listed to fit the Ford Falcon, Fairmont and Territory from 01/2002 to 12/2014. It's the seal between the cylinder head and the header or manifold flange, with a Redback RRP of $20.89.
A header gasket is the flat seal that clamps between the cylinder head and the exhaust header or manifold. Its only job is to keep that joint gas-tight, which is exactly where an exhaust leak develops once the original gasket ages and hardens. It's a fitment and service part rather than anything that changes how the engine breathes — it's renewed whenever the header comes off so the joint reseals cleanly. The DSF157 is the gasket Redback specifies for this Ford family; the listing carries no material or thickness, so that detail is confirmed on the part.
The DSF157 is listed to fit the Ford Falcon, Fairmont and Territory built between January 2002 and December 2014 — the later BA-through-FG Falcon era and the Territory alongside it. Gasket fit follows the engine's port pattern, so the check is your exact engine rather than just the model. Treat it as 'listed to fit' and confirm your build with the workshop before ordering.
Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits header gaskets like the DSF157 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 holds without blowing through.
