Cometic 75-87 Buick V6 196/231/252 Stage I & II 4.02 inch Bore .036 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built for Buick V6 engines with a 4.02-inch bore, specifically for Stage I & II applications. You get one head gasket in this package, designed to provide a strong seal between your cylinder head and engine block. It’s made with multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it extra strength and helps it resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing jobs and different surface finishes without needing extra sealants.

The compressed thickness of this gasket is 0.036 inches, which is a common spec for many performance builds. Because it's an MLS gasket, it's well-suited for pairings like aluminum heads on aluminum blocks or aluminum heads on cast iron blocks, as it can handle the stresses that come from those different materials working together. This gasket fits a wide range of Buick V6 vehicles from the mid-70s through the early 2000s, as well as some Chevrolet models from the same eras.
