Cometic Ford 289/302/351 4.080 inch Bore .036 inch MLS Head Gasket (Non SVO)

Cometic Gasket is a well-known name for building solid engine components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. It's designed for Ford Windsor V8 engines, specifically those with a 4.080 inch bore and a compressed thickness of .036 inches. This gasket is built to handle the demands of high-output engines, whether you're pairing aluminum heads with an aluminum block or an iron block. It fits a wide range of classic Ford vehicles, including models like the Ford Bronco, Ford F-Series trucks, and even performance cars like the De Tomaso Pantera.

What makes this gasket stand out is its construction. It 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 temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring a reliable seal even in tough conditions. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, but this specific gasket is set at .036 inches compressed. Because it's an MLS gasket, it doesn't require any additional sealants, making installation more straightforward.
