Cometic Honda B Series Hybrid VTEC Head/Non-VTEC Block .098in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 81mm Bore

If you're working on a 1997-2001 Honda CR-V and need a cylinder head gasket for a Non-VTEC block paired with VTEC heads, this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is a solid option. It's specifically designed to handle the unique sealing demands of this hybrid setup, ensuring a reliable seal between your engine block and cylinder head.

This gasket is built with multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it increased strength and the ability to rebound, helping it resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C) and works well in various sealing environments. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, with this particular gasket set to a compressed thickness of 0.098 inches and an 81mm bore. These MLS gaskets don't require any additional sealants, making installation more straightforward, and they are suitable for use with both aluminum and cast iron blocks.
