Product Details

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. If you're working on a Chevrolet Gen-1 Small Block V8 engine, this gasket is designed to provide a reliable seal between your cylinder head and block. It's built to handle the demands of higher output engines, meaning it offers a strong seal without needing any extra sealants.

This gasket is constructed from 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 conditions and various surface finishes. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the .051 inch this gasket is set at. The bore size is 4.165 inches, and it also features valve pocketed bores and steam holes for proper engine function.

This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles from the early 1980s, including models like the Chevrolet Camaro, GMC C1500, and Buick Century. It's a solid option for rebuilding or repairing your Gen-1 Small Block V8.
