Exhaust Header Gasket Set BBF 1.560 x 2.320

The Exhaust Header Gasket Set BBF 1.560 x 2.320 in Rectangle Port from COMETIC GASKETS is engineered for Ford FE-Series big-block engines requiring reliable, high-temperature sealing at the exhaust manifold interface. This pair of gaskets serves as the critical barrier between the cylinder head and exhaust header, preventing combustion gases and coolant from leaking into the engine bay. Whether you're rebuilding a classic muscle car, restoring a vintage pickup, or performing routine maintenance on a big-block Ford, quality header gaskets are essential to maintaining proper engine sealing and preventing costly secondary damage.

Constructed from multi-layer steel, this gasket set is designed to withstand the extreme thermal cycling and pressure cycles inherent to exhaust manifold applications. The 1.560 x 2.320 inch rectangular port dimensions are precisely matched to Ford FE-Series cylinder head specifications, ensuring proper alignment and complete seal coverage. Multi-layer steel construction provides superior crush strength and recovery compared to traditional fiber gaskets, resisting blow-out and maintaining a consistent seal across thousands of heat cycles. The gasket's engineered thickness and material composition allow it to handle sustained high temperatures while accommodating minor surface irregularities common in vintage engine work.

Technicians and enthusiasts restoring or modifying Ford FE-Series engines—including 390, 406, 410, 427, and 428 big-blocks—rely on this gasket set to deliver leak-free performance. Proper installation requires clean mating surfaces, correct torque specifications per your engine manual, and sequential tightening to ensure even load distribution across both gaskets. The pair format covers both cylinder head-to-manifold junctions on a typical big-block installation, simplifying ordering and ensuring consistent sealing quality on both sides of the engine.
