Cometic Ford 302/351W Windsor V8 .089in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.200in Bore - SVO

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed stainless steel layers, featuring an outer layer coated with Viton rubber. This construction is designed to handle the demands of high-output engines and provides a reliable seal without needing additional sealants. It's well-suited for combinations of aluminum heads with either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as the multiple steel layers can manage the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

The Viton coating on the outer layers is heat resistant up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit (250 C), making it capable of withstanding harsh sealing environments and varying load conditions. The center shim layer is made of uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different gasket thicknesses, like the .089 inch thickness of this particular gasket. The compressed operating thickness for this gasket is 0.036 inches, and it features a 4.200 inch bore, making it a solid option for Ford 302 and 351 Windsor V8 engines.

This gasket fits a wide range of Ford vehicles, including models like the Bronco, E-150 Econoline, and Country Squire. It's a well-built component for rebuilding or repairing your engine's top end.
