Cometic Honda Hybrid LS/VTEC 81mm 90+ B18 w/ VTEC Head .027 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built for specific Honda B-series engine configurations, particularly the hybrid LS/VTEC setups. You get one MLS head gasket, featuring embossed outer layers coated with Viton rubber and a compressed thickness of 0.027 inches. This gasket is designed to handle the demands of high-output engines, whether you're pairing aluminum heads with an aluminum block or an aluminum head with a cast iron block. The multiple stainless steel layers offer increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while the Viton coating on the outer layers can withstand high temperatures up to 482°F (250°C) and harsh sealing environments.

The center shim layer is made of stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thickness requirements, which is how this gasket achieves its 0.027-inch compressed thickness. This particular gasket is specified for use with a non-VTEC block and VTEC heads, making it a precise fit for certain engine builds. Because it's an MLS gasket, it doesn't require any additional sealants, simplifying the installation process.
