Cometic Chrysler 361/383/413/440 4.35 inch Bore .080 inch MLS Head Gasket

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket, designed for Chrysler 361, 383, 413, and 440 cubic inch V8 engines. It features a 4.350-inch bore and a compressed thickness of 0.080 inches. This gasket is built to handle the demands of high-output engines and is suitable for use with both aluminum and cast iron blocks, as well as aluminum cylinder heads. It's a solid option for rebuilding or upgrading engines in a wide range of classic Mopar vehicles, including models like the Dodge Charger, Chrysler New Yorker, and Plymouth Barracuda.

The construction uses multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to shearing forces between different block and head materials. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring a reliable seal in harsh operating conditions. This design means the gasket doesn't require any additional sealants for installation, simplifying the process and providing a robust seal right out of the box. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness control.
