Cometic Ford 4.6L V-8 Left Side 94MM .060 inch MLS-5 Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, featuring a Viton rubber coating on the outer layers. This design is specifically for the left side of Ford 4.6L V-8 engines and has a compressed operating thickness of 0.060 inches with a 94mm bore. MLS gaskets are a solid choice for high-output engines because they don't require any additional sealants and can handle the stresses between aluminum heads and either aluminum or cast iron blocks. The stainless steel layers provide increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while the Viton coating on the outer layers is heat resistant up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suitable for demanding sealing environments.

The center shim layer is made of uncoated stainless steel, allowing for variations in thickness to meet different requirements. This gasket is well-suited for both aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-cast iron block configurations. It's designed to withstand the shearing forces that can occur between dissimilar metals, ensuring a consistent and reliable seal over time. This gasket fits a wide range of Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles, including models like the Ford F-150, Crown Victoria, and Mustang.
