What does the .060 inch thickness mean for my engine?

The .060 inch thickness refers to the compressed gasket thickness. This specific size is often used when rebuilding an engine to achieve a particular compression ratio or to account for machining done to the cylinder head or block surfaces.

What is HP shim technology and why is it important?

HP shim technology involves embossed metal shims integrated into the gasket design, particularly around the combustion chamber. This increases the clamping force in that critical area, improving the seal against high cylinder pressures, which is beneficial for open deck engine designs.

Does this head gasket come with any hardware?

This product is for the head gasket only. It does not include head bolts or other installation hardware. You will need to source those separately if required for your engine build.

About this part

Product Details

This is a Cometic MLS-5 head gasket specifically for the Ford 5.0L Gen-2 Coyote Modular V8 engine, found in the 2015-2017 F-150 and Mustang. When you're rebuilding the top end of your engine, a solid head gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber and preventing coolant and oil leaks. This gasket is designed to handle the demands of that engine.

Cometic uses a multi-layer steel (MLS) construction for strength and durability. The key feature here is the HP shim technology, which adds extra sealing pressure right around the combustion chamber. This is especially important for open deck blocks like the Coyote, as it helps prevent leaks by increasing the gasket's ability to seal under high cylinder pressures. The outer layers are also coated with Viton, a material known for its resistance to heat and oil, further enhancing the seal's longevity.

This gasket is built to fit right and perform reliably in your 2015-2017 F-150 or Mustang. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's installation instructions carefully when putting it in place.
