Cometic Chevy Gen1 Small Block V8 .036in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.145in Bore - Vortec Heads

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Chevrolet Gen-1 Small Block V8, a solid cylinder head gasket is crucial for a good seal. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of these engines, especially those with Vortec heads. It features a .036 inch thickness and a 4.145 inch bore, designed to provide a reliable seal between the cylinder head and the block.

Cometic uses multiple layers of stainless steel for this gasket, which gives it increased strength and helps it resist corrosion and rebound well. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F. This construction helps ensure a tight seal even under tough operating conditions. This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles, including many Chevrolet C/K series trucks, Camaros, and Corvettes from the early 80s.
