Cometic Ford 302/351W Windsor V8 .070in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.080in Bore - SVO

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed stainless steel layers, featuring a Viton rubber coating on the outer layers. This design is crucial for sealing high-output engines, especially when dealing with the potential shearing forces between aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, or between two aluminum components. The Viton coating is heat resistant up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suitable for demanding sealing environments and various surface finishes.

The center shim layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for varied thickness requirements, and in this case, it's set at a compressed operating thickness of 0.036 inches with a 0.070-inch uncompressed thickness. This gasket is designed to provide maximum sealing performance without the need for additional sealants. It fits a wide range of Ford vehicles, including models like the Ford Bronco, E-150 Econoline, and Country Squire, offering a solid option for engine rebuilds.
