Product Details

Cometic Gasket is a well-known name for making solid engine sealing solutions, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. If you're working on a Ford Windsor V8 engine, this gasket is built to handle the demands of higher output builds. It's designed to provide a strong seal between your cylinder head and block, which is crucial for keeping combustion pressures contained and preventing coolant and oil leaks.

This gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, giving it increased strength and the ability to rebound. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing environments and various surface finishes, meaning you don't need to add extra sealants. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied in thickness to meet different requirements; in this case, it's set to a compressed thickness of 0.036 inches for a .086 inch uncompressed thickness, with a 4.200 inch bore diameter. This construction makes it suitable for pairings like aluminum heads to aluminum blocks or aluminum heads to cast iron blocks, as it can manage the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

This Cometic MLS head gasket fits a wide range of vehicles, including classic Ford Broncos, F-Series trucks, and even some performance models like the De Tomaso Pantera. It's a solid option for rebuilding or upgrading your Windsor V8 engine.
