Exhaust Manifold Gasket Set for OE Fitment

Victor Reinz 11-10297-01 is an exhaust manifold gasket set built for high-temperature sealing at the exhaust manifold. It is made with metal construction and follows OE specifications for a wide range of applications, including Saturn Ion, Saturn Vue, Chevrolet Cobalt, and Pontiac G5 models.

With a one-piece configuration and 10 bolt holes, this gasket set is intended for direct replacement on supported vehicles where exhaust sealing integrity is critical. Victor Reinz 11-10297-01 is also cross-referenced to MAHLE MS19335 for the same application.

Key Features

• Metal exhaust manifold gasket construction
• One-piece configuration for OE-style replacement
• 10 bolt hole design
• Built for high-temperature exhaust sealing
• Matches OE specifications across a broad vehicle range
• Compatible with select California emissions and non-California emissions applications

Detailed Description

Victor Reinz 11-10297-01 is an exhaust manifold gasket set engineered for vehicles that demand reliable sealing under extreme exhaust heat. Victor Reinz has a long history of supplying manifold gaskets to original equipment manufacturers, and this part reflects that OE-focused approach with coverage for later-model compact cars and earlier Saturn and GM applications. It is a practical choice for repairs on Saturn Ion, Saturn Vue, Chevrolet Cobalt, and Pontiac G5 platforms where exhaust manifold sealing must remain consistent under thermal cycling.

Compatible With 2000-2004 Saturn LS, LS1, LW1, L100, L200, LW200, and L300 applications, as well as 2002-2009 Saturn Vue and 2003-2009 Saturn Ion applications. Also fits 2002-2008 Chevrolet Cavalier, Classic, Cobalt, Malibu, and HHR applications, plus 2002-2008 Pontiac Grand Am, Sunfire, Pursuit, G5, G6, and Solstice applications where listed.

Common Repair Uses

• Exhaust leaks at the manifold-to-cylinder head sealing surface
• Noise from a leaking exhaust manifold gasket
• Loss of exhaust sealing after heat cycling or gasket wear
• Service work on vehicles with California emissions or without Secondary Air Injection Pump, where listed
• Replacement during exhaust manifold removal and reinstallation

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine and emissions configuration before ordering, since fitment includes standard, California emissions, and without Secondary Air Injection Pump applications. Inspect the manifold and cylinder head sealing surfaces for warpage, carbon tracking, or corrosion before installation. Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque sequence and torque specifications during assembly.

Quality Assurance

Victor Reinz supplies OE-specification sealing products to vehicle manufacturers, and this gasket set is built to that standard for supported applications. Part number 11-10297-01 is designed for direct replacement use on the listed vehicles and is cross-referenced to MAHLE MS19335.
