About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1992-2000 Honda Civic or CRX SI with a D15 or D16 SOHC engine, a quality head gasket is crucial for a solid seal. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of these engines.

This gasket uses multiple layers of stainless steel for strength and resilience. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This coating helps create a reliable seal against both aluminum and cast iron engine blocks, and it doesn't require any additional sealants. The compressed thickness is 0.080 inches, with a bore size of 75.5mm, designed to match your engine's specifications.

Cometic's MLS design is known for its ability to rebound and resist corrosion, making it a solid choice for engines that see regular use. This gasket is designed to fit right and provide dependable sealing for your D15Z1, D16Y5, D16Y7, D16Y8, or D16Z6 engine.
