What is the main advantage of an MLS head gasket?

Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gaskets offer improved sealing capabilities compared to traditional composite gaskets. They are better at handling higher cylinder pressures and temperatures, which is beneficial for performance engines or when dealing with demanding operating conditions.

Why would I choose a .060 inch thick head gasket?

The .060 inch thickness is a specific measurement that can be used to adjust the engine's compression ratio during a rebuild. It's often chosen when pairing with different piston designs or cylinder heads to achieve a desired compression level.

Does this gasket come with any installation hardware?

This product is for the head gasket only. It does not include head bolts or other installation hardware, which should be sourced separately if needed.

Product Details

This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic is built for Volkswagen's 1.8L and 2.0L EA827 engines. It features an 84mm bore and a .060 inch thickness, making it a specific choice for certain engine builds or rebuilds where precise deck height and compression ratio adjustments are needed. MLS gaskets are known for their ability to handle higher cylinder pressures and temperatures compared to traditional composite gaskets, offering a more robust seal for performance-oriented applications.

The multi-layer construction uses stainless steel layers with a specialized coating to create a strong seal that conforms to the cylinder head and block surfaces. This design helps prevent leaks and blowouts, even under demanding conditions. The .060 inch thickness is a notable specification that can be used to fine-tune compression ratios when rebuilding an engine, especially when paired with different piston or head combinations. Cometic has a reputation for well-built gaskets, and this one is designed to provide a reliable seal for your EA827 engine.
