The Victor Reinz 61-10366-00 is a standard-thickness OEM-replacement cylinder head gasket engineered for 1994–2003 7.3 Powerstroke diesel engines. Manufactured by Dana to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, this premium graphite cylinder head gasket features reinforced steel combustion fire rings and elastomeric fluid sealing beads to maintain dependable compression and coolant control across the block deck.

Blown cylinder head gaskets, combustion gases pressurizing the cooling system, coolant pushing out of the degas bottle under load, and external oil or coolant deck leaks are what this gasket cures. High-mileage heat cycling, heavy towing stress, and elevated cylinder pressures degrade factory head gasket fire rings, resulting in compression loss and cooling system contamination. Rebuilding the top end with Victor Reinz graphite head gaskets restores factory deck sealing and thermal compliance across heavy cast iron cylinder heads and blocks. It is sold as a single cylinder head gasket; two gaskets are required to complete an engine build, and cylinder head bolts or studs are sold separately.

It fits all 1994–2003 7.3 Powerstroke Ford Super Duty trucks, OBS F-Series, Excursions, and E-Series vans.

Ensure both the cylinder head and engine block mating surfaces are flat, thoroughly deburred, and completely cleaned free of oil, carbon, and solvent residue before positioning the gasket. Always verify proper gasket orientation over the block alignment dowels; installing a head gasket backward or upside down will block critical high-pressure oil and coolant passages, leading to instant top-end starvation or catastrophic engine failure. Torque new head bolts or heavy-duty head studs in the factory spiral pattern across multiple progressive steps strictly following the fastener manufacturer’s torque sequence and lubrication guidelines.
