Cometic BMC 1500/1600/1600 Mark II B Series .036in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 74mm Bore

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built for the World Products Man-o-War Block and features a 74mm bore with a compressed operating thickness of 0.036 inches. It's designed to provide a strong seal for high-output engines, and because it's an MLS gasket, it doesn't require any additional sealants. These gaskets are a solid choice for mating aluminum heads to either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as they can handle the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

The strength of these MLS gaskets comes from their multiple layers of stainless steel, which also helps them rebound and resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit and is built to perform in tough sealing conditions. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for adjustments to thickness requirements.
