About this part

Product Details

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example for your 2005-2010 Ford Mustang with the 4.6L 3-valve engine. When you're rebuilding the top end of your engine, a solid head gasket is crucial for keeping combustion pressures contained and coolant and oil where they belong. This gasket is designed to handle the demands of high-output engines without needing any additional sealants.

This gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C) and works well with both aluminum and cast iron blocks. The specific thickness of this gasket is 0.075 inches, with a compressed operating thickness of 0.098 inches, and it features a 94mm bore, making it a precise fit for the 4.6L 3-valve engine. The multi-layer design also allows the gasket to rebound and resist shearing forces between different metal types, ensuring a reliable seal.

This Cometic MLS head gasket is a solid option for your Mustang rebuild. It's built to provide maximum sealing performance and is suitable for a variety of engine builds, ensuring your engine stays sealed under pressure.
