94 header gasket?
so im pretty sure my dad talked 2 a dumbass at autozone yesterday...i told my father 2 get me a header gasket for my truck and he brings back a manifold gasket...so 2day i had him take it back and the guy at auto zone said thats all they have for my truck this wouldnt be a problem but the gasket they gave me is 4 a 3 bolt manifold and my header has only 2 bolts per pipe and the 3rd hole interfears with the seal around my header so my question is does any1 else with a 94 ford ranger xl 4x4 2.3ltr have headers or manifolds on there truck? thanks guys......... rf > frf = me

The proper term is a manifold gasket, you have an intake manifold and an exhaust manifold. Header is a correct term, but Autozone, Advance, Pepboys, etc... rely on proper terminology. Same applies if you were looking for a downpipe flange gasket, it would be a collector flange gasket. I know because I used to work at Pepboys.

His truck came stock with the headers. I know because my 94 did.
Headers and manifolds are not the same thing.
Headers use a header plate which the individual pipes are welded to and run into a collector.
A manifold is a single cast unit with the four chambers combined to a single outlet.
They each use a different gasket.

Some aftermarket headers used a separate gasket for each exhaust port. A real PITA to install.
