Cometic Jaguar/Ford AJ33/35 UK Model 3.9L/4.2L V8 93mm LHS .030 inch MLS Head Gasket

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Jaguar or Ford UK model with a 3.9L or 4.2L V8 engine, a quality head gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic is specifically made for the left-hand side and features a 93mm bore with a compressed thickness of 0.030 inches. It's designed to handle the demands of high-output engines, ensuring a strong seal without needing additional sealants.

Cometic builds these gaskets 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 temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suitable for harsh sealing environments. This construction is ideal whether you're mating aluminum heads to an aluminum block or to a cast iron block, as it can manage the shearing forces between different metals. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, and the overall design allows for a reliable seal that rebounds and resists corrosion over time.

This gasket fits a wide range of Jaguar models, including the S-Type, XJ8, XK8, and XKR, among others. It's a well-built component designed for a direct fit, helping you get your engine back together with confidence.
