About this part

Product Details

When you're rebuilding the top end of your Honda B-series VTEC engine, a solid head gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of high-output engines, offering a reliable seal without needing extra sealants.

Cometic constructs this gasket using 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 tough sealing environments and various surface finishes. This design is effective whether you're mating aluminum heads to aluminum blocks or aluminum heads to cast iron blocks, as it can manage the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, and its thickness can be adjusted to meet different requirements, with this specific gasket having a compressed operating thickness of 0.066 inches and an 81mm bore.

This gasket is designed for specific Honda engines like the B16A2, B16A3, B17A1, B18C1, and B18C5, commonly found in models like the 1994-2001 Acura Integra, 1994-1997 Honda Civic del Sol, and 1999-2000 Honda Civic.
