Cometic Ford FE V8 .030in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.300in Bore - Does Not Fit 427 SOHC Cammer

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with a compressed operating thickness of .030 inches and a 4.300 inch bore, specifically for Ford FE V8 engines. The multiple stainless steel layers provide increased strength and rebound resistance, helping to ensure a solid seal under demanding conditions. This gasket is designed to work well with both aluminum and cast iron blocks, handling the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

The outer layers of this gasket are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes it suitable for high-output engines where sealing integrity is critical. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for variations in thickness to meet specific engine build requirements. Because it's an MLS gasket, it doesn't require any additional sealants, simplifying installation.

This gasket fits a wide range of Ford FE V8 applications, including models like the Ford F-100, Ford Fairlane, and Ford Galaxie. Please note that this specific gasket does not fit the 427 SOHC Cammer engine.
