Cometic Toyota 3S-GE/3S-GTE 87mm 87-97 .030 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed stainless steel layers, featuring an outer coating of Viton rubber. With a compressed operating thickness of 0.030 inches, it's designed to handle the demands of high-output engines like the Toyota 3S-GE and 3S-GTE found in your 1988-1993 Celica or 1991-1994 MR2.

The strength of MLS construction comes from its multiple stainless steel layers, which allow the gasket to rebound and resist corrosion. This design is ideal for sealing between aluminum heads and either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as it can manage the shearing forces that occur between dissimilar metals. The Viton coating on the outer layers is a heat-resistant material, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring a solid seal even in harsh conditions and on various surface finishes. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness adjustments to meet specific engine requirements.
