Cometic Ford Y-Block V8 .066in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 3.860in Bore - RHS

Cometic Gasket is well-known for their multi-layer steel (MLS) head gaskets, and this C15170-066 is a prime example of their work for Ford's Y-Block V8 engines. If you're rebuilding or refreshing the top end of your classic Ford, this gasket is designed to provide a solid seal. It features a .066 inch thickness and a 3.860 inch bore, making it suitable for specific Y-Block configurations.

What sets this gasket apart is its HP shim technology. This advanced design increases the clamping force around the combustion chamber, which is especially important for open deck blocks like the Y-Block. This improved sealability helps prevent leaks and ensures your engine runs as it should. The gasket is also coated on both sides with Viton, a material known for its resistance to heat and oil, further enhancing its sealing capabilities and durability in demanding engine conditions.

This gasket fits a wide range of classic Ford vehicles from the 1950s and early 1960s, including popular models like the Ford F-100, Fairlane, and Thunderbird. Ensure you check the full fitment list to confirm it's the right part for your specific application.
