Cometic Buick Big Block V8 .074in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.385in Bore

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. It’s built for Buick Big Block V8 engines and features a 4.385-inch bore with a thickness of .074 inches. This gasket is designed to handle the demands of high-output engines, providing a strong seal without needing any extra sealants.

This MLS gasket uses multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it increased strength and the ability to rebound, helping it resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing jobs and various surface finishes. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the .074 inches on this particular gasket. It works well with both aluminum and cast iron blocks, even when paired with aluminum heads, because it can manage the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

This gasket fits a range of Buick vehicles from the late 60s through the mid-70s, including models like the Electra, LeSabre, and Riviera. It's a solid option for rebuilding or repairing your engine's top end.
