Cometic Chrysler B/RB V8 .098in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.500in Bore

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Chrysler B or RB V8 engine, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a solid option. It's designed with a 4.500-inch bore and a .098-inch thickness, suitable for a wide range of classic Mopar applications from the late 50s through the late 70s, including models like the Chrysler New Yorker, Dodge Charger, and Plymouth Barracuda.

Cometic builds these gaskets using three to five layers of stainless steel. This material choice gives the gasket increased strength and resilience, helping it rebound well under pressure and resist corrosion, which is crucial for a long-lasting seal. The outer layers are embossed and coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This advanced coating helps ensure a reliable seal even in demanding engine conditions and across various surface finishes.

This gasket is a direct fit for many Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, and DeSoto V8 engines from the era. Make sure to check the full fitment list to confirm it matches your specific vehicle.
