What is the main advantage of a Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket?

MLS head gaskets, like this Cometic C5364-092, are made from multiple layers of stainless steel. This construction provides superior strength and resilience compared to single-layer gaskets, helping them withstand higher pressures and resist corrosion effectively.

Does this gasket require any sealant during installation?

No, this Cometic MLS head gasket is designed to provide a maximum seal without the need for any additional sealants. The Viton coating on the outer layers ensures a tight seal against the cylinder head and block surfaces.

What is the significance of the .092in compressed thickness and 4.180in bore?

The .092-inch compressed thickness is a specific dimension for certain engine builds, often used to achieve a desired compression ratio. The 4.180-inch bore size is critical for proper sealing around the cylinder walls, especially in modified or performance applications like SVO/Yates engines.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Ford 302 or 351 Windsor V8, getting the right head gasket is crucial for a reliable seal. This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket is specifically designed for these engines, offering a compressed thickness of .092 inches and a 4.180-inch bore, making it suitable for SVO/Yates applications and the left-hand side of the engine.

Cometic's MLS design uses multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing environments and varying surface finishes, ensuring a dependable seal between your cylinder head and engine block. This construction means the gasket requires no additional sealants, simplifying installation and providing a robust barrier against combustion pressures and fluids.

This gasket fits a wide range of Ford V8 applications, including classic Broncos, Econoline vans, and F-Series trucks from the late 60s through the 90s. It's a well-built component designed to handle the demands of higher-output engines.
