Cometic Ford FE V8 .098in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.080in Bore - Does Not Fit 427 SOHC Cammer

Cometic Gasket is a well-known name for building solid engine components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is no exception. It’s designed for Ford FE V8 engines with a 4.080-inch bore, offering a compressed thickness of 0.036 inches. This gasket is built to handle the demands of high-output engines and fits a wide range of classic Ford and Mercury vehicles, including models like the Ford F-100, Ford Fairlane, and Mercury Caliente.

This MLS gasket uses 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 with different block and head materials, like aluminum heads on cast iron blocks. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the 0.098 inches specified for this part. Because it's an MLS design, it doesn't require any additional sealants.
