Cometic Chevrolet Gen-1 Small Block V8 .040in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.135in Bore

Cometic Gasket has built a reputation for creating robust sealing solutions, especially for engines that need to perform under pressure. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is designed for Chevrolet Gen-1 Small Block V8 engines, offering a reliable seal for your rebuild or upgrade. It features a 4.135-inch bore and a compressed thickness of .040 inches, making it suitable for a wide range of vehicles like the Chevrolet C10, Camaro, and GMC C1500, among many others.

What sets this gasket apart is its construction. It's made from multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it strength and helps it resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing environments and various surface finishes. This design means you don't need any extra sealants, and it's built to handle the forces between aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, or even aluminum to aluminum. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied for different thickness needs, and this particular gasket has undersized water ports, which is a common feature when using aftermarket heads to allow for custom porting.

This gasket is a solid option if you're working on a high-output engine or simply want a dependable seal. It's designed to provide maximum sealing performance right out of the box.
