Cometic Ford Pre-Crossflow OHV Kent-Crossflow OHV Kent .056in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket-87mm Bore

This product is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket designed for specific Ford and Lotus engines. It features an 87mm bore and a compressed thickness of .056 inches. This gasket is built to handle the demands of high-output engines and is suitable for use with aluminum heads on both aluminum and cast iron blocks, as it can manage the shearing forces that arise from dissimilar materials.

The gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can withstand temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This Viton coating is designed to perform well in harsh sealing environments and under various load conditions. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, and its thickness can be adjusted to meet different requirements, allowing for precise sealing.
