Cometic Chrysler B/RB V8 4.500in Bore .051in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket designed for Chrysler B/RB V8 engines with a 4.500 inch bore. It has a compressed thickness of .051 inches. MLS gaskets are built with multiple layers of stainless steel, giving them increased strength and the ability to rebound and resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle harsh sealing environments and various surface finishes. This type of gasket is ideal for sealing aluminum heads to aluminum blocks, or aluminum heads to cast iron blocks, as it can withstand the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. Because of their construction, these gaskets do not require any additional sealants.

This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles, including models like the Chrysler New Yorker, Dodge Charger, and Imperial, from the late 1950s through the late 1970s. The multi-layer steel construction offers improved sealing performance for high-output engines, ensuring a solid seal under demanding conditions.
