Cometic Toyota 4AG-GE 16V 81mm Bore .056in MLS-5 Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed stainless steel layers, featuring Viton rubber coating on the outer layers. When compressed, it measures 0.056 inches thick. MLS gaskets are a solid choice for high-output engines because they offer maximum sealing performance without needing additional sealants. They handle the stress between aluminum heads and either aluminum or cast iron blocks well. The stainless steel construction provides increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while the Viton coating on the outer layers can withstand temperatures up to 482°F (250°C), making it suitable for demanding sealing environments.

The center shim layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for variations in thickness to meet different engine requirements. This particular gasket is designed for an 81mm bore and is suitable for 16-valve 4A-GE and 4A-GEZ engines found in your 1985-1991 Toyota Corolla or 1985-1989 Toyota MR2. It's a well-built component designed to handle the pressures of performance applications.
