Cometic Ford 4.6L V-8 Right Side 92MM .027 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, featuring an outer layer coated with Viton rubber. With a compressed operating thickness of 0.027 inches, it's specifically designed for the right side of Ford 4.6L V-8 engines and has a 92mm bore. MLS gaskets are known for their ability to handle the demands of high-output engines and are suitable for applications with aluminum heads on either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as they can manage the shearing forces between different metals.

The strength of these gaskets comes from their layered stainless steel construction, which also allows them to rebound and resist corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant elastomer capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This material is chosen for its ability to perform in harsh sealing environments, under various load conditions, and on different surface finishes. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different gasket thicknesses, like the 0.027 inch specification on this particular gasket.

This gasket fits a wide range of Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles, including models like the Ford F-150, Ford Crown Victoria, and Lincoln Town Car. Because it requires no additional sealants, installation is straightforward, making it a solid option for engine rebuilds or repairs on these modular V8 engines.
