Why dont my W-2 gaskets fit ??? - 10/03/11 11:11 PM
I have a set of 70's production Econo W-2 heads and im running hedman hustler fenderwell headers .One of the gaskets blew the other day ,so i went down and got a set of Mr.Gasket #5939's for W-2 heads and they dont fit my headers pattern.My heads have two sets of patterns for the exhausts .Which gasket set do i need and were do i get them ?The ones that came off of it were Hedman brand ,but didnt have a part # i could see on them . Thanks in advance ...

Somewhere I have some sets of Mopar W2 exhaust gaskets. I can hunt for them if you're interested. Max

Witch holes are you using on the heads? Stock pattern or w-2? I would guess that since w-2 gaskets didn't work you are using stock pattern.

There are two different patterns. Standard and spread. Most but not all W2's have the spread pattern. Some have both. You can call Heddman and get the gaskets from them or at least the number and get them through Jegs or Summit.

measure the center to center distance on the center two ports bolt holes..
smaller is standard..
larger is the race...

If you are running headmans you have adaptor plates. The gasket is it the one on the outside of the plate or the inside to the head? The one to the head is what you bought and the other has to be gotten from hedman.
