Cometic 70-93 ROV V8 94mm Bore .040 inch MLS Head Gasket 14 Bolt Head

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1970-1993 Land Rover Range Rover with a V8 engine, a solid head gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of higher output engines, ensuring a reliable seal without needing extra sealants.

Cometic constructs this gasket with 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 both aluminum and cast iron blocks. This design helps prevent shearing forces between different block materials and maintains a strong seal even with varying surface finishes. The center layer is stainless steel, and its thickness is varied to achieve the specific compressed operating thickness of 0.040 inches, which is important for maintaining proper compression ratios.

This gasket is specifically designed for 14-bolt cylinder heads and features a 94mm bore, making it a direct fit for the Rover 3.5L and 3.9L V8 engines in your Range Rover. Ensure you have the correct gasket for your specific engine configuration to get the best sealing performance.
