NOTE 2: We don't have header gaskets for this engine but you can use the header gaskets for the 1962-78 V6 Buick engine (you will have to buy 2 sets).
This header flange also fits the 61-63 215" Pontiac engine as it is identical to the Buick engine.
Header Flanges are priced as a set which means V8 and V6 sets have two flanges (one for each head).

Arguably, in this segment dominated by relatively small, high output (in other words, high specific output) engines from Japanese makes, I would think there'd be some concern about aiding the perception that a company like GM has to go to "almost 4.0L" of displacement to compete with the Japanese.
