Cometic Gasket Ford 335 Series V8 4.100in Bore .080in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, featuring an outer coating of Viton rubber. This construction is designed to handle the demands of high-output engines and ensures a strong seal without needing additional sealants. The Viton coating on the outer layers is heat resistant up to 482°F (250°C), making it suitable for a variety of harsh sealing environments and surface finishes.

The MLS design offers increased strength due to its layered stainless steel construction, which also allows the gasket to rebound and resist corrosion. This makes it a solid choice for applications involving aluminum heads with either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as it can withstand the shearing forces that can occur between these materials. The center shim layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thickness requirements, with this specific gasket having a compressed operating thickness of 0.080 inches and a bore size of 4.100 inches.

This gasket fits a wide range of Ford 335 Series V8 engines, commonly found in vehicles like the Ford F-150, Ford Bronco, and Mercury Cougar from various years. It's a well-built component for rebuilding or repairing your engine's top end.
