Product Details

When you're rebuilding a Chevrolet Big Block V8, like the 396, 402, 427, or 454, you need a head gasket that can handle the power. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built for those high-output engines. It's designed to provide a solid seal between your cylinder head and block, even with different metal types like aluminum heads on cast iron blocks.

What you get here is a well-built MLS gasket. It's made of 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 jobs and various surface finishes. This gasket has a compressed thickness of 0.036 inches, and it's designed to seal effectively without needing any extra sealants. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied in thickness to meet different engine build needs.

This gasket fits a wide range of Chevrolet vehicles from the mid-60s through the 90s, including models like the Impala, Chevelle, and C10 Pickup. It's a solid option for anyone looking for reliable sealing in their Big Block build.
