Cometic Toyota Tacoma / Landcruiser 98mm 5VZ-FE .075 inch MLS Head Gasket Left Side

When you're rebuilding the top end of your 5VZ-FE engine, getting the right head gasket is crucial. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic is specifically for the left side of your engine and measures 98mm across the bore. It's designed to handle the demands of high-output engines without needing any extra sealants, making installation cleaner and more reliable.

What makes this gasket stand out is its construction. It's built with multiple layers of stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance. 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 Viton coating ensures a strong seal even under tough conditions and works well with both aluminum and cast iron engine blocks. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, and the compressed thickness for this specific gasket is 0.075 inches.

This gasket is a solid option for both aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-cast iron head and block combinations, as it can manage the stress that comes from different metals working together. It's a well-built component designed for a precise fit on your Toyota.
