About this part

Product Details

This product is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket designed for your 1975-1978 Nissan 280Z with the L28E, L28S, or L28ES non-turbo engine. It features an 89mm bore and a compressed thickness of .070 inches, providing a solid seal for your engine's cylinder head and block. MLS gaskets are built with multiple layers of stainless steel, offering increased strength and resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for various engine builds.

The outer layers of this gasket are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This coating helps ensure a reliable seal even under demanding conditions and works well with different block and head materials, including aluminum and cast iron. The center layer is stainless steel, and its thickness can be varied to meet different sealing requirements, which is how this gasket achieves its .070 inch compressed thickness.

Because these MLS gaskets are designed for high-output engines, they don't require any additional sealants, simplifying installation. This gasket is a well-built option for rebuilding or repairing your L28 engine.
