Cometic Ford 302/351W Windsor V8 .060in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.180in Bore - SVO/Yates - LHS

If you're working on a Ford 302 or 351 Windsor V8, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built to handle the demands of a high-output engine. It's specifically designed for the left side of the engine and features a 4.180-inch bore, with a valve-pocketed design to accommodate your engine's needs. This gasket is a solid choice for both aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-cast iron head and block combinations, as it's engineered to withstand the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

What sets this gasket apart is its construction. It's made from multiple layers of stainless steel, which not only increases its strength but also allows it to rebound and resist corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This Viton coating ensures a maximum seal in tough conditions, and the gasket requires no additional sealants, making installation more straightforward. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to meet different thickness requirements, with this specific gasket set to a compressed thickness of 0.060 inches.

This gasket fits a wide range of Ford vehicles, including classic Broncos, Econoline vans, and Panteras. It's a well-built component that offers reliable sealing for your Windsor V8 build.
