What does 'LHS' mean for this head gasket?

LHS stands for Left Hand Side. This gasket is specifically designed for the left bank of the engine. You will need a separate gasket for the right-hand side.

What is the compressed thickness of this gasket?

The compressed operating thickness of this Cometic MLX head gasket is 0.032 inches. This is an important measurement for ensuring proper compression ratios and valve-to-piston clearance.

What is the benefit of the Viton coating on the outer layers?

The Viton rubber coating on the outer layers of the stainless steel provides improved resistance to engine oils and other fluids. This helps maintain the integrity of the seal in the presence of common automotive chemicals.
