Cometic Ford FE V8 .027in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.165in Bore - Does Not Fit 427 SOHC Cammer

When you're rebuilding or refreshing the top end of your Ford FE V8 engine, you'll want a head gasket that seals tight and lasts. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic is built for that job. It's designed to handle the pressures of high-output engines and is suitable for use with aluminum or cast iron blocks, and aluminum heads. The gasket itself is made of multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C) and works well in tough sealing environments.

The compressed operating thickness of this gasket is .027 inches, with a bore size of 4.165 inches. This specific gasket is designed for a range of Ford FE V8 applications, including models like the Ford F-100, Fairlane, and Galaxie, but it's important to note that it does not fit the 427 SOHC Cammer engine. Because it's an MLS gasket, it doesn't require any additional sealants, making installation a bit more straightforward. The multiple stainless steel layers provide rebound strength and corrosion resistance, while the Viton coating ensures a reliable seal against various surface finishes.
