Cometic Ford Windsor V8 .044in MLX Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.200in Bore - Non-SVO

Cometic Gasket has built a solid reputation for making reliable multi-layer steel (MLS) head gaskets, and this C5025-044 is a prime example. It's designed for Ford Windsor V8 engines with a 4.200-inch bore and a thickness of .044 inches, intended for non-SVO applications. These gaskets are built to handle the demands of high-output engines, providing a strong seal without needing extra sealants.

What makes these gaskets stand out is their construction. They're made from multiple layers of stainless steel. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, making them suitable for a wide range of sealing challenges and surface finishes. The stainless steel layers not only add strength but also help the gasket rebound and resist corrosion. This design is effective whether you're pairing aluminum heads with aluminum blocks or aluminum heads with cast iron blocks, as it can manage the forces created by different metals.

This gasket fits a broad range of vehicles, including classic AC Shelby Cobras, Ford Broncos, and DeTomaso Panteras, among many others. It's a well-built component designed to ensure a dependable seal for your engine build.
