About this part

Product Details

Starting with a .089 inch thickness and a 97mm bore, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built for the right side of your Nissan VQ37VHR V6 engine. MLS gaskets are a smart choice for high-output engines because they offer excellent sealing without needing extra sealants, and they handle the different expansion rates between aluminum heads and cast iron blocks really well. This particular gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it strength and helps it resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring a solid seal even in tough conditions. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the .089 inches on this gasket, which is crucial for maintaining proper compression ratios when rebuilding or modifying your engine.

This gasket is designed to fit a wide range of Infiniti and Nissan vehicles equipped with the VQ35DE Version 2, VQ35HR, or VQ37VHR engines. You'll find it commonly used in models like the Infiniti G37, Nissan 370Z, and Nissan Altima. The multi-layer steel construction not only adds strength but also allows the gasket to rebound and resist corrosion, making it a durable option for your engine build. The Viton coating on the outer layers is key to its sealing performance, meeting the demands of various sealing environments and surface finishes.
