Cometic GM LS Gen-3/4 Small Block V8 .095in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.060in Bore

Cometic Gasket is a well-known name for building solid engine components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. It's designed specifically for GM LS Gen-3 and Gen-4 small block V8 engines with a 4.060-inch bore, offering a compressed thickness of .095 inches. This gasket is built to handle the demands of high-output engines, making it a popular choice for rebuilds and performance applications across a range of vehicles like the Chevrolet Corvette, Cadillac CTS, and Buick LaCrosse.

What makes these MLS gaskets stand out is their construction. They're made from multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives them increased strength and the ability to rebound, helping to resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C) and works well in tough sealing environments. This coating, combined with the embossed layers, means you don't need any extra sealants for a reliable seal, whether you're mating aluminum heads to aluminum blocks or aluminum heads to cast iron blocks. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the .095 inches on this particular gasket.
