If you're working on a Chevrolet Gen-1 Small Block V8 engine, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built to handle the job. It's designed for a 4.165-inch bore and has a compressed thickness of .066 inches, making it a solid choice for many performance and stock rebuilds. This gasket fits a wide range of GM vehicles from 1980 to 1986, including popular models like the Chevrolet C10 and GMC C1500 trucks, as well as the Chevrolet Camaro and Corvette.

What makes this gasket stand out is its construction. It uses multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion, which is important when mating aluminum heads to cast iron blocks. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing environments and various surface finishes without needing additional sealants. The center layer is stainless steel, and its thickness can be varied to meet different engine requirements, ensuring a precise fit and seal.

This gasket includes steam holes to help manage heat and pressure within the engine. Its robust construction means it's ready for the demands of high-output engines, providing a reliable seal that helps keep your engine running smoothly.
