Cometic Ford 302/351 4.155in Round Bore .140 inch MLS-5 Head Gasket

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Ford 302 or 351 Windsor V8, getting the cylinder head gaskets right is crucial for a strong seal. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of modern, high-output engines without needing any extra sealants.

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 tough sealing environments and different surface finishes, making it suitable for both aluminum and cast iron block combinations. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied in thickness; in this case, it's set to a compressed operating thickness of 0.140 inches, with a 4.155-inch bore diameter, specifically for Ford 302 and 351 Windsor engines.

This gasket fits a wide range of Ford vehicles from the late 1960s through the mid-1990s, including popular models like the Bronco, E-Series vans, and various Ford sedans and custom models. It's a well-built component designed for reliable performance in rebuilt or modified engines.
