Cometic Ford 302/351 4.060in Round Bore .040 inch MLS Head Gasket

When you're rebuilding the top end of your Ford 302 or 351 Windsor V8, getting the head gasket right is crucial for a solid seal. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of higher output engines, ensuring a reliable seal between your cylinder head and block.

Cometic 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°F (250°C), making it suitable for a wide range of sealing environments and surface finishes. This construction means you don't need any extra sealants; the gasket is ready to go right out of the box. It's designed to work well with both aluminum heads on aluminum blocks and aluminum heads on cast iron blocks, accommodating the potential for shearing forces between different metals.

This gasket features a compressed operating thickness of 0.040 inches and a bore size of 4.060 inches, specifically sized for Ford 302 and 351 Windsor engines. It fits a wide range of Ford vehicles, including many Bronco, Econoline, and F-Series truck models from the late 60s through the 90s.
