Cometic Cadillac L37/LD8 Northstar V8 .120in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 94mm Bore - LHS

This is the Left Hand Side Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket for Cadillac L37 and LD8 Northstar V8 engines. It's designed with a 94mm bore and a compressed thickness of .120 inches, making it a solid option when you're rebuilding the top end of these engines. MLS gaskets are known for their ability to handle the demands of higher output engines without needing additional sealants.

Cometic builds these gaskets using multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives them 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 and works well with different block and head materials, including aluminum to cast iron. The center layer is stainless steel, and its thickness can be varied to meet specific sealing requirements. This construction helps them withstand the shearing forces that can occur between dissimilar metals like aluminum heads and cast iron blocks.

This gasket fits a range of vehicles, including models like the Cadillac DeVille, Eldorado, and Seville, as well as the Buick Lucerne and Pontiac Bonneville. Always double-check the fitment guide to ensure it's the right part for your specific year and model.
