Product Details

When you're rebuilding the top end of your Ford Flathead V8, getting the cylinder head gasket right is crucial for a solid seal. This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket is specifically made for the Ford 239 Flathead V8 with a 3.375-inch bore and 24 studs, designed to fit the 59A engine configuration. It's built to handle the demands of these classic engines, ensuring a reliable seal between your cylinder head and block.

Cometic's MLS design uses 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 high temperatures up to 482°F (250°C) and works well with different block and head materials, including aluminum and cast iron. This gasket has a compressed thickness of .040 inches, which is important for maintaining proper compression ratios. Because it's an MLS gasket, it doesn't require any additional sealants, making installation more straightforward.

This gasket fits a wide range of Ford and Mercury vehicles from the late 1930s through the mid-1950s, including various pickup trucks, sedans, and wagons. It's a well-built component designed for a direct fit on the specified Flathead V8 engines.
