Product Details
When you're rebuilding the top end of your Chevy Gen-1 Small Block V8, you need a head gasket that seals reliably. This Cometic MLX gasket is designed for that job, featuring a multi-layer stainless steel construction with an integrated stopper layer. This design helps ensure a strong seal around the combustion chamber and handles increased clamp load without distorting the cylinder bore.
The outer layers of this gasket are coated with Viton, a robust synthetic rubber known for its resistance to heat and oil. With a compressed operating thickness of 0.040 inches and steam holes included, it's built to handle the demands of your V8. Cometic's MLX technology means you won't need to use sealants or re-torque the head after installation, simplifying the process.
This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles from the early 1980s, including models like the Chevrolet C10, Camaro, and GMC C1500. It's a well-built option for anyone looking to ensure a solid seal for their engine rebuild.
