Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1962-1975 Lotus Elan, getting the cylinder head gasket right is crucial for a solid seal. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of performance engines, ensuring a reliable seal between your cylinder head and block.

Cometic constructs this gasket with 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 both aluminum and cast iron blocks. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, and the gasket has a compressed thickness of 0.040 inches with an 86mm bore, making it suitable for various configurations of the OHV Kent and Crossflow engines, as well as Cosworth BD and Lotus Twin Cam applications.

Because it's an MLS design, this gasket doesn't require any additional sealants, simplifying installation. It's a well-built option designed to provide maximum sealing performance for your engine build.
