Cometic GM Dart/Brodix Small Block V8 .044in / 4.270in Bore / 4.500in Bore Center MLS Head Gasket

Cometic Gasket is a well-known name for creating solid sealing solutions, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example of their work. It's built for high-output GM Dart or Brodix Small Block V8 engines, specifically designed for a 4.270-inch bore with a 4.500-inch bore center. These gaskets are ideal when you're working with aluminum heads on either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as they can handle the stresses that come from combining different metals.

What makes these MLS gaskets stand out is their construction. They use multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives them increased strength and the ability to rebound, helping to prevent corrosion. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit and works well in tough sealing environments. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, and its thickness can be varied to meet different sealing needs. This design means you don't need any extra sealants when you install them, and they're ready for demanding applications.

This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles from the early 1980s, including popular models like the Chevrolet C10, Camaro, and GMC C1500. It's a solid option for anyone rebuilding or modifying their V8 engine.
