Cometic Chrysler LA V8 .140in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.080in Bore

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Chrysler LA V8 engine, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a solid choice. It's designed with a 4.080-inch bore and a compressed thickness of .098 inches, making it suitable for a wide range of Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth V8 applications from the mid-60s through the early 90s, including vehicles like the Dodge D150, Chrysler Cordoba, and Plymouth Barracuda.

Cometic builds these gaskets using multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F and works well with different block and head materials, including aluminum and cast iron. This construction means the gasket seals effectively without needing additional sealants, and it's built to handle the demands of higher output engines.

The center layer of stainless steel can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, and in this case, it's set to provide a .140-inch uncompressed thickness. This design helps ensure a reliable seal for your engine rebuild.
