About this part

Product Details

If you're working on the engine of your 1993-1996 Honda Prelude, specifically the 2.2L VTEC engine, this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic is a solid choice. It's designed to seal the combustion chamber and coolant passages between your cylinder head and engine block, which is critical for keeping your engine running smoothly and preventing leaks.

This gasket is built with multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing environments and varying surface finishes, making it suitable for both aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-cast iron block setups. The compressed thickness of this gasket is 0.080 inches, and it features an 88mm bore, matching the specifications for the Honda H22A1 and H22A2 engines found in those Prelude models. Because it's an MLS gasket, it doesn't require any additional sealants.
