Cometic Oldsmobile Gen-2 Rocket V8 .075in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 4.400in Bore

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing solutions, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. It’s built for Oldsmobile Gen-2 Rocket V8 engines with a 4.400-inch bore, designed to handle the demands of higher output applications. This gasket is ideal for pairing aluminum heads with either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as the multiple stainless steel layers can handle the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

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 temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This coating helps ensure a solid seal in tough conditions, and the gasket doesn't require any additional sealants. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, with this particular gasket having a compressed operating thickness of 0.036 inches and an overall thickness of 0.075 inches.

This gasket fits a wide range of vehicles from the late 1960s through the mid-1970s, including models like the Oldsmobile 98, Buick LeSabre, and Pontiac Grand LeMans. It’s a solid option for rebuilding or upgrading your engine.
