The automotive part number
19024 (cataloged historically under
Corteco and Detroit Gasket) is a vintage
Engine Valve Cover Gasket. In modern auto parts databases, this historical part number crosses over directly to active industry-standard lines like
Fel-Pro VS 12692, Mahle VS39564, and Victor Reinz VS39564.
Description & Function
This is a perimeter-bolt valve cover gasket traditionally manufactured from a high-quality rubberized-cork composite compound or dense aftermarket rubber. It is an elongated, single-piece gasket designed with a distinct straight line of bolt hole locations tailored to early inline-6 engine blocks. Its vital function is to seal the junction between the top of the cylinder head and the valve cover. This traps splashing engine motor oil inside the upper valve train assembly, preventing it from weeping onto the hot exhaust manifolds, spark plug wells, or engine bay wiring.
Comprehensive Vehicle Fitment (1960–1983)
This part specifically fits the iconic Ford "Thriftpower" Straight-6 / Inline-6 engine family. These reliable, long-running engines powered a massive lineup of classic Ford and Mercury cars, compact trucks, and early SUVs:

- Ford 250 CID (4.1L) Inline-6 (1969–1980)
- Classic Ford Models:
- Ford Mustang: 1965–1973 (First-generation 170 and 200 straight-six muscle cars) and 1979–1981 Mustang lines.
- Ford Falcon & Ranchero: 1960–1970
- Ford Maverick & Granada: 1970–1982
- Ford Fairlane & Torino: 1962–1970
- Ford Fairmont: 1978–1983
- Ford Bronco: 1966–1977 compact 4x4 models running the 170 or 200 six-cylinder engines.
- Ford F-100 / F-150 Pickups & Econoline Vans: 1965–1974 lines using the smaller inline-six family.
- Classic Mercury Models:
- Comet, Cougar, Montego, Zephyr, Monarch, and Capri models running corresponding 200 or 250 CID straight-six blocks.
