Cometic Ford Pre-Crossflow OHV Kent-Crossflow OHV Kent .027in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket-83mm Bore

This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic features an 83mm bore and a .027 inch thickness, specifically designed for Ford Pre-Crossflow OHV Kent and Crossflow OHV Kent engines, as well as Cosworth BD Series and Lotus Twin Cam applications. The HP shim technology built into this gasket is key; it increases the clamping force around the combustion chamber, which is especially important for open deck blocks like those found in many classic Lotus models. This improved sealability helps prevent leaks and ensures your engine runs smoothly.

The outer layers of this gasket are embossed and coated with Viton, a high-performance fluoroelastomer known for its resistance to heat and automotive fluids. This combination of advanced materials and thoughtful design means this head gasket is well-built to handle the demands of your engine, providing a reliable seal for years to come. It's a solid choice for anyone rebuilding or maintaining the top end of their classic Lotus or similar engine.
