Cometic Chrysler LA V8 .098in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.040in Bore

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket starts with a compressed thickness of .098 inches and is designed for a 4.040-inch bore, making it a solid choice for rebuilding or repairing Chrysler LA V8 engines. The multi-layer design uses stainless steel for strength and rebound, helping it handle the forces between aluminum and cast iron blocks. It’s built to provide maximum sealing performance for high-output engines right out of the box, without needing any extra sealants.

The outer layers of this gasket are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This coating is tough enough for demanding sealing environments and works well on various surface finishes. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, and its thickness can be varied to meet different requirements. This construction means the gasket can rebound and resist corrosion, ensuring a reliable seal over time.

This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles, including models like the Dodge Challenger, Chrysler Cordoba, and Bristol 408. Always check the full fitment list to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle.
