Cometic Ford 289/302/351 4.200 inch Bore .027 inch MLS Head Gasket (Non SVO)

Cometic Gasket is a well-known name for creating dependable sealing solutions, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. It's built for Ford Windsor V8 engines with a 4.200-inch bore, specifically designed for applications that don't use SVO parts. This gasket is engineered to provide maximum sealing performance, especially for today's higher output engines, and it doesn't require any additional sealants.

This gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, with the outer layers featuring a heat-resistant Viton rubber coating. Viton can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C) and is designed to work in tough sealing environments, even with different surface finishes. The multiple stainless steel layers give the gasket increased strength and the ability to rebound, while also resisting corrosion. This construction makes it ideal for joining aluminum heads to either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as it can handle the shearing forces that can occur between these materials. The compressed thickness is a precise 0.027 inches, with the center layer being uncoated stainless steel that can be varied to meet different thickness needs.

This gasket fits a wide range of Ford vehicles, including classic models like the AC Shelby Cobra and Ford Bronco, as well as later models such as the Ford E-150 Econoline. It's a solid option for rebuilding or repairing your engine's top end.
