About this part

Product Details

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. If you're working on your 1992-2006 Dodge Viper and need to replace the head gaskets, this part is built to handle the demands of high-output engines.

This gasket 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 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suitable for harsh sealing environments. The compressed thickness of this gasket is 0.060 inches, and it's designed for a 4.060-inch bore, fitting your Viper's engine precisely. Because it's an MLS gasket, it doesn't require any additional sealants, simplifying installation.
