About this part

Product Details

When you're rebuilding the top end of your Chevy Gen-1 Small Block V8, you want a head gasket that's built to seal tight and last. What you get in this box is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket, designed for a 4.125-inch bore and a compressed thickness of 0.036 inches. This gasket is made to handle the demands of modern, high-output engines without needing any extra sealants.

This MLS gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, giving it increased strength and the ability to rebound, which helps it resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes it a solid choice whether you're pairing aluminum heads with an aluminum block or aluminum heads with a cast iron block, as it can manage the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. The center layer is stainless steel, allowing for variations in thickness to meet specific needs.

This gasket is a popular choice for a wide range of vehicles from the early 1980s, including models like the Chevrolet Camaro, GMC C1500, and Buick Regal. It's designed to fit right and provide a dependable seal for your engine build.
