Cometic Ford SB V8 World Products Man OinWar .040in MLS Cyl Head Gasket-4.100in Bore-6 Bolt

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket designed for Ford SB V8 engines using World Products Man-o-War blocks. It has a compressed operating thickness of 0.040 inches and a bore size of 4.100 inches, with a 6-bolt pattern for 10-degree heads. This gasket is built to handle the demands of high-output engines and is suitable for use with both aluminum and cast iron blocks.

Cometic's MLS gaskets are constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives them increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This coating ensures a strong seal even in harsh conditions and across different surface finishes. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thickness requirements, like the 0.040-inch thickness of this specific gasket.

This gasket fits a wide range of Ford SB V8 applications, including vehicles like the Ford Bronco, Ford F-100, and AC Shelby Cobra models from various years. Because it's made of multiple stainless steel layers, it can handle the shearing forces that can occur between aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, providing a reliable seal without the need for additional sealants.
