Cometic Chevy Gen1 Small Block V8 .040in MLS Cyl Head Gasket-4.060in Bore-Brodix 12-23 Degree Heads

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 specifically designed for a 4.060-inch bore and is intended for use with Brodix heads that have a 12-23 degree valve angle. This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles, including models like the Chevrolet C10, Camaro, and GMC C1500 from the 1980s.

Cometic's MLS gaskets are constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives them increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This coating helps ensure a strong seal, even under demanding conditions, and means you won't need to use additional sealants during installation. The compressed operating thickness of this gasket is 0.040 inches, making it suitable for engines where precise gasket thickness is important.
