Cometic Ford 351 Cleveland 4.100 inch Bore .027 inch MLS Head Gasket

Cometic Gasket is well-known for making solid sealing solutions, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. It’s built for Ford 351 Cleveland engines with a 4.100 inch bore, and it has a compressed thickness of .027 inches. This gasket is designed to handle the demands of high-output engines, whether you're pairing aluminum heads with an aluminum block or aluminum heads with a cast iron block. The multiple stainless steel layers give it strength and resistance to corrosion, while the outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing environments and various surface finishes.

The unique construction of these MLS gaskets means they don't require any additional sealants, making installation more straightforward. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, and its thickness can be varied to meet different requirements, which is how Cometic achieves the .027 inch compressed operating thickness for this specific gasket. This design helps withstand the shearing forces that can occur between different block and head materials, ensuring a reliable seal.

This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles, including models like the Ford Bronco, Ford F-150, and Mercury Cougar. It's a well-built component for anyone rebuilding or working on their Ford 351 Cleveland engine.
