Cometic Chrysler W8 Head V8 .094in Fiber Valve Cover Gasket

This Cometic valve cover gasket is built with a soft durometer rubber wrapped around a steel torque-limiting frame. This design is meant to handle the stresses of engine operation, preventing blow-outs and over-tightening issues that can happen with simpler cork or paper gaskets. The .094 inch thickness is specific to certain W8 V8 Chrysler applications, ensuring a proper seal for your engine.

The steel frame inside this gasket is key. It helps control how much you tighten the valve cover bolts, stopping you from crushing the gasket material too much. This not only helps create a better seal but also means the gasket can be reused if you need to pull the valve cover again for maintenance. It's a well-built option designed to resist high vacuum conditions and provide a dependable seal for a wide range of Chrysler, Dodge, and even Bristol vehicles from the 1950s through the early 1990s.
