Cometic Chrysler LA V8 .030in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.125in Bore - With 318 A Head

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket designed for Chrysler LA V8 engines. It's specifically made for a 4.125-inch bore and includes the necessary features for 318 A heads. This gasket is a well-built option for rebuilding or repairing a wide range of Dodge and Chrysler vehicles from the 1970s and early 1980s, such as the Dodge D150 Pickup or Chrysler Newport.

Cometic MLS gaskets are constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives them increased strength and the ability to rebound, helping them resist corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing environments and various surface finishes. This construction means the gasket seals effectively without needing additional sealants, making it suitable for applications with both aluminum and cast iron blocks.

The center layer of this gasket is uncoated stainless steel, and its thickness can be varied to meet different requirements. This particular gasket has a compressed operating thickness of 0.036 inches and is sized 0.030 inches undersize, which is important to note for your engine build.
