Cometic Ford 302/351W Windsor V8 .070in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.100in Bore - SVO/Yates - RHS

Starting with a compressed thickness of 0.070 inches, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built for serious performance. It's constructed from multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, with the outer layers treated to a heat-resistant Viton rubber coating. This design means the gasket can handle the demands of high-output engines without needing additional sealants, making it suitable for pairings like aluminum heads to aluminum blocks or aluminum heads to cast iron blocks. The stainless steel layers provide increased strength and resist corrosion, while the Viton coating is rated for temperatures up to 482°F (250°C), ensuring a solid seal in harsh conditions.

The center shim layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the 0.070 inches found here. This particular gasket is designed for the right side of Ford 302 and 351 Windsor V8 engines, featuring a 4.100-inch bore with valve pocketing. It's a popular choice for builds using SVO/Yates or RHS components. This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles, including many Ford Bronco, Econoline, and F-Series trucks, as well as other makes like the De Tomaso Pantera.
