About this part

Product Details

Cometic Gasket is well-known for making dependable sealing solutions, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. If you're working on the 1GR-FE V6 engine in your Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, Tacoma, or Tundra, this gasket is designed to provide a strong seal between your cylinder head and engine block. It's specifically for the left side of the engine and has a bore size of 96.5mm, with a compressed thickness of .036 inches.

This MLS gasket is built with multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it the strength to handle the forces between aluminum heads and cast iron blocks without deforming. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring a tight seal even under demanding conditions. Because it's an MLS design, it doesn't require any additional sealants, making installation more straightforward.
