Cometic Jaguar 1973-1992 4.2L XK6 .086in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 3.670in Bore

If you're working on the 4.2L XK6 engine in your 1972-1987 Jaguar XJ6, this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket from Cometic is built to handle the job. MLS gaskets are known for their strength and ability to seal effectively in demanding applications, making them a solid choice for rebuilding or repairing your engine's top end.

This gasket is constructed with multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it increased strength and the ability to rebound, helping it resist corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material designed to seal well even in harsh conditions and on various surface finishes. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the .086 inch compressed thickness on this particular gasket. Because it's an MLS design, it doesn't require any additional sealants, simplifying installation.

This gasket is designed to work with both aluminum and cast iron blocks, and it can handle the shearing forces that can occur between different metal types. It's a well-built component that aims to provide a reliable seal for your Jaguar's engine.
