Cometic Nissan VQ35DE Version 1 - VQ40DE .060in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 98mm Bore - LHS

This is the left-side cylinder head gasket from Cometic, designed for a range of Nissan and Infiniti vehicles with VQ35DE Version 1 and VQ40DE engines. It's a Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket, meaning it's built with several layers of stainless steel for strength and durability. This type of gasket is ideal for engines that are pushed harder, whether you have aluminum heads on an aluminum block or aluminum heads on a cast iron block, as it can handle the stresses between different metals.

The gasket has a compressed operating thickness of 0.060 inches and a 98mm bore. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This coating helps ensure a strong seal even in demanding conditions and on various surface finishes, and you don't need any extra sealants when installing it. The center layer is stainless steel, and Cometic uses these layers to create a gasket that resists corrosion and can rebound, making it a solid option for rebuilding or repairing your engine's top end.
