About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 2005-2010 Ford Mustang, especially one with the 4.6L 3-valve RHS engine, a reliable head gasket is crucial. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of higher output engines, ensuring a solid seal between your cylinder head and block.

Cometic uses multiple layers of stainless steel for 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 different head and block materials like aluminum and cast iron. This construction means you don't need extra sealants, and the gasket can handle the stresses between dissimilar metals. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, with this specific gasket set to a compressed operating thickness of 0.098 inches and a 94mm bore.

This gasket is a well-built option for your Mustang's 4.6L 3-valve engine. It's designed to fit right and perform reliably, making it a solid choice for your engine build.
