About this part

Product Details

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket, designed for a 97mm bore and a compressed thickness of .051 inches. You get one gasket in this package, which is what you'll need for a single cylinder head. These gaskets are built for modern, high-output engines and don't require any additional sealants, making installation more straightforward. They work well with both aluminum and cast iron blocks, handling the stresses that can arise when different metals meet.

The construction uses multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing conditions and various surface finishes. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied in thickness to meet specific engine requirements. This design helps manage the shearing forces between dissimilar engine block and head materials.

This gasket fits a wide range of Nissan and Infiniti vehicles, including models like the 370Z, Altima, Maxima, and various Infiniti G and Q series cars. It's a solid option when you need reliable sealing for your VQ engine rebuild.
