Cometic Ford Boss 302 .036in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.100in Bore

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket is a prime example. Designed for high-output engines, it's built to handle the demands of performance applications like the Ford Boss 302. This gasket features a compressed operating thickness of 0.036 inches, with a 4.100-inch bore, making it suitable for specific engine builds like those using the World Products Man-o-War block or SVO heads.

The construction uses multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This Viton coating is crucial for creating a reliable seal, especially when mating aluminum heads to aluminum or cast iron blocks, as it helps manage the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for variations in thickness to meet specific engine requirements.

Because these are MLS gaskets, they don't require any additional sealants, simplifying installation. They are designed to provide maximum sealing performance, ensuring your engine runs efficiently and reliably.
