Cometic 92-96 GM LT1 Small Block 4.100 inch Bore .051 inch MLS Head Gasket (w/Valve Pockets)

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, featuring a Viton rubber coating on the outer layers. With a compressed operating thickness of .051 inches and a 4.100 inch bore, it's designed to provide maximum sealing performance for high-output GM LT1 and LT4 Gen-2 Small Block V8 engines. These gaskets are well-suited for applications using aluminum heads with either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as they can handle the shearing forces that arise from dissimilar materials. The stainless steel construction offers increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while the Viton coating, which is heat resistant up to 482°F, ensures reliable sealing in demanding conditions.

Cometic MLS head gaskets require no additional sealants, simplifying installation. The center shim layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thickness requirements, though this specific gasket is set at .051 inches compressed. This gasket fits a range of vehicles including the Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Pontiac Firebird from the mid-90s.
