Cometic Jaguar 3.8L XK6 .098in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 89mm Bore

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1958-1961 Jaguar XK150, getting the cylinder head gasket right is crucial for proper engine function. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of your 3.8L XK6 engine, ensuring a solid seal between the cylinder head and the block.

Cometic uses 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 different surface finishes, meaning you won't need any extra sealants. The center layer is also stainless steel, and its thickness can be varied to meet specific requirements, like the 0.098-inch compressed thickness and 89mm bore on this particular gasket, which is designed to fit your Jaguar's specific engine configuration.

This gasket is a well-built option suitable for both aluminum heads to aluminum blocks and aluminum heads to cast iron blocks, as it can manage the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. It's a solid choice for ensuring your engine seals properly after a rebuild.
