Cometic Ford 239 Flathead V8 .070in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 3.375in Bore - 24 Stud - 59A

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. If you're working on a Ford 239 Flathead V8, this gasket is designed to provide a strong seal for your engine's top end. It's built with multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it the strength to handle the demands of high-output engines and resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing environments and various surface finishes, meaning you won't need to add any extra sealants during installation.

This gasket has a compressed thickness of .070 inches and is designed for a 3.375-inch bore with 24 studs. The multi-layer steel construction not only adds strength but also allows the gasket to rebound and maintain its seal. It's suitable for use with both aluminum and cast iron blocks, and it can handle the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. This gasket fits a wide range of Ford and Mercury vehicles from the late 1930s through the early 1950s, including models like the Ford F-1, Ford Deluxe, and Mercury Monterey.
