Cometic GM LS1 SB 4.160 inch Bore .030 inch MLS Head Gasket

Cometic Gasket is a well-known name for building solid engine components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. Designed for GM LS Gen-3/4 small block V8 engines, this gasket is built to handle the demands of high-output applications. It features a 4.160 inch bore and a compressed operating thickness of 0.030 inches, making it suitable for a wide range of builds and engine configurations.

What sets this gasket apart is its construction. It's made from multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This Viton coating ensures a reliable seal even in harsh conditions and across different surface finishes, and it means you don't need any extra sealants during installation. The center layer is also stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness control to match your engine's needs.

This gasket fits a broad spectrum of vehicles, including models like the Chevrolet Corvette, Cadillac CTS, and Buick LaCrosse. Its robust construction makes it a solid option whether you're working with aluminum heads on aluminum blocks or aluminum heads on cast iron blocks, as it can withstand the shearing forces between different metals.
