Cometic Ford 302/351W Windsor V8 .080in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.100in Bore - SVO

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket, specifically made for Ford 302 and 351 Windsor V8 engines. It's designed with a compressed thickness of 0.080 inches and a 4.100-inch bore, making it suitable for a wide range of Ford vehicles like the Bronco, E-Series vans, and Country Squire models from the late 60s through the 90s. MLS gaskets are built for high-output engines and don't require any additional sealants, offering a reliable seal between aluminum or cast iron blocks and heads.

Cometic builds these gaskets with multiple stainless steel layers for increased strength and corrosion resistance. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring a good seal even under demanding conditions. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, and its thickness can be varied to meet different engine build needs. This construction helps them withstand the forces created when mating different metal types, like aluminum heads to cast iron blocks.
