Cometic Chrysler 318/340/360 4.080inch Bore .051 Thickness MLS Head Gasket

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket designed for Chrysler 318, 340, and 360 LA series V8 engines. It features a 4.080-inch bore and a compressed thickness of 0.051 inches. MLS gaskets are built with multiple layers of stainless steel, offering improved strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that seals effectively even under demanding conditions and on various surface finishes.

These gaskets are well-suited for applications using aluminum heads with either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as they can handle the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. Because they are constructed from multiple stainless steel layers, they have the ability to rebound and resist corrosion, making them a solid choice for high-output engines. They do not require any additional sealants for installation.

This gasket fits a wide range of Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth vehicles from the mid-1960s through the early 1990s, including models like the Dodge D150 pickup and Chrysler Cordoba. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper fitment and procedure.
