Cometic Chrysler LA V8 .051in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.180in Bore - With 318 A Head

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket designed for Chrysler LA V8 engines. You get one MLS head gasket, which is constructed from multiple embossed layers of stainless steel. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C), and it requires no additional sealants.

MLS gaskets are a solid choice for engines with high output because they offer maximum sealing performance. They work well with both aluminum and cast iron blocks and heads, and the multiple stainless steel layers provide increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The center shim layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the .051 inch thickness of this particular gasket, which has a 4.180 inch bore and is designed for the 318 A head configuration. This gasket fits a wide range of Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth vehicles from the early 70s through the early 90s, including models like the Dodge D150 Pickup and Chrysler Newport.
