About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1997-2001 Honda Prelude, a solid cylinder head gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the pressures of high-output engines, ensuring a reliable seal between your cylinder head and block.

Cometic constructs this gasket with multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and corrosion resistance. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This combination makes it suitable for sealing aluminum heads to aluminum blocks or aluminum heads to cast iron blocks, as it can manage the shearing forces that arise between different metals. The center layer is stainless steel, and its thickness is varied to achieve the specific 0.092-inch compressed operating thickness for this gasket, with an 87mm bore to match your engine.

Because it's an MLS design, this gasket doesn't require any additional sealants, simplifying installation. It's a well-built component designed to provide maximum sealing performance for your Prelude's engine.
