About this part

Product Details

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket designed for Chrysler 361, 383, 413, and 440 cubic inch B/RB V8 engines. You get one MLS head gasket with a 4.380-inch bore and a compressed thickness of 0.036 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, offering a solid seal that doesn't require additional sealants.

The construction features multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This Viton coating is designed to perform well in harsh sealing environments and under various load conditions. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness control.

This gasket fits a wide range of Chrysler, Dodge, and DeSoto vehicles from the late 1950s through the late 1970s, including models like the Chrysler New Yorker, Dodge Charger, and DeSoto Adventurer. It's a well-built component for rebuilding or repairing your engine's top end.
