What does HTS mean for these gaskets?

HTS stands for High Temperature Synthetic. This material is engineered to compress and seal effectively, even on exhaust manifold surfaces that aren't perfectly flat, and it's built to withstand high temperatures.

Are these gaskets sold individually or as a set?

This is a gasket set, meaning it includes the necessary gaskets to seal both exhaust manifolds on your V8 engine.

What is the benefit of a .060 inch thick gasket?

The specific .060 inch thickness is chosen to provide a good balance of sealing capability and clearance. It allows the gasket to compress and fill minor imperfections on the manifold or cylinder head sealing surfaces.

Product Details

These Cometic HTS exhaust manifold gaskets are precisely .060 inches thick, a specific measurement chosen to help seal less-than-perfect exhaust manifold surfaces. When you're working on a GM Gen-3/4 Small Block V8, especially one that's seen some miles or has had the manifolds removed and reinstalled, you want a gasket that can handle minor imperfections. This set is designed to compress and conform, ensuring a solid seal that keeps exhaust gases where they belong.

Cometic builds these gaskets in the USA using materials manufactured domestically. They are made to handle the increased pressures and temperatures common in today's more powerful engines. This means you can trust them to hold up, whether you're rebuilding a classic or working on a more modern performance application. They fit a wide range of GM vehicles, from Chevrolet Camaros and Corvettes to Cadillac CTS models and Buick LaCrosse, making them a versatile choice for many V8 projects.
