Cometic Chrysler LA V8 .045in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.040in Bore

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, featuring an outer layer coated with Viton rubber. It's designed for a compressed operating thickness of 0.045 inches and a bore size of 4.040 inches, making it suitable for a wide range of Chrysler LA V8 engines, including those found in vehicles like the Dodge D150 and Chrysler Cordoba.

MLS gaskets are known for their ability to handle high-output engines and don't require any additional sealants. They work well with both aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-cast iron block combinations, resisting the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. The stainless steel layers provide increased strength and resilience, while the Viton coating on the outer layers is heat resistant up to 482°F (250°C) and handles tough sealing environments and surface finishes.

The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the 0.045 inches on this gasket. This construction offers improved strength and corrosion resistance, ensuring a solid seal for your engine.
