Cometic Ford Pre-Crossflow OHV Kent-Crossflow OHV Kent .080in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket-85mm Bore

What you get here is a Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket from Cometic Gasket, specifically designed for Ford Pre-Crossflow OHV Kent and Crossflow OHV Kent engines, as well as Cosworth BD Series and Lotus Twin Cam applications. This gasket is built to a .080 inch thickness with an 85mm bore, intended to provide a solid seal between your cylinder head and engine block.

MLS gaskets are known for their durability and ability to handle higher compression and temperature changes compared to traditional composite gaskets. The embossed outer layers on this particular gasket are coated with Viton, a material that helps create a better seal and resist blow-by, especially under demanding conditions. This construction makes it a popular choice when rebuilding or refreshing these specific engines, offering improved sealing performance.

This gasket fits a range of vehicles, including models like the Jensen Healey, various Lotus Elan and Esprit models, and the Lotus Seven. Always check the full fitment guide to ensure it matches your specific vehicle.
