Cometic Honda CRX/Civic Integra -VTEC 84mm .027 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is what you get when you need a solid seal for your Honda B16A2, B16A3, B17A1, B18C1, or B18C5 engine, commonly found in models like the 1994-2001 Acura Integra, 1994-1997 Honda Civic del Sol, and 1999-2000 Honda Civic. It's built with multiple layers of stainless steel, giving it extra strength and resistance to corrosion, and the outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing jobs without needing any extra sealants. This gasket is designed to work well whether you're mating aluminum heads to an aluminum block or to a cast iron block, as it can handle the different expansion rates between those metals.

The key to this gasket's performance is its construction. The multiple stainless steel layers provide a strong foundation that can rebound and resist the forces within the engine. On the outside, the Viton coating is applied to embossed layers, which helps create a superior seal. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied in thickness to meet different engine build requirements; in this case, it's set to achieve a compressed operating thickness of 0.027 inches, with an 84mm bore to match your engine's specifications. This design means you get a reliable seal that can stand up to the demands of higher output engines.
