About this part

Product Details

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is what you get when you need a solid seal for your 1997-2001 Honda Prelude's H22A4 or H22A7 engine. It's built with multiple layers of stainless steel, giving it extra strength and the ability to rebound and resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing jobs and different surface finishes, so you know it's going to hold up.

The compressed thickness on this gasket is 0.075 inches, and the center layer is stainless steel that can be adjusted for different thickness needs. Because it's an MLS gasket, it's designed to work well with both aluminum heads and aluminum blocks, or aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, handling the stress between different metals. You won't need any extra sealants with this gasket; it's made to seal perfectly on its own.
