About this part

Product Details

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built gaskets that seal reliably, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is no exception. If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1994-2001 Acura Integra, especially one with a VTEC engine, this gasket is designed to handle the job. It's built with multiple layers of stainless steel, giving it strength and the ability to rebound, which helps it resist corrosion and maintain a seal even with different metal types like aluminum heads and cast iron blocks.

The outer layers of this gasket are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This coating is applied to both sides and is designed to work in tough sealing environments and on various surface finishes, meaning you don't need to add any extra sealants. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied in thickness; in this case, it's set to provide a compressed operating thickness of 0.060 inches with an 85mm bore, making it a solid option for high-output engines.
