Cometic Ford Pre-Crossflow OHV Kent-Crossflow OHV Kent .051in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket-85mm Bore

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1962-1975 Lotus Elan, getting the cylinder head gasket right is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber and coolant passages. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of these classic engines.

This 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). This combination ensures a strong seal between the cylinder head and the block, even with aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, and it doesn't require any additional sealants. The compressed thickness is 0.051 inches with an 85mm bore, designed to match your engine's specifications.
