Fel-Pro 1057 Steel core laminate Engine Cylinder Head Gasket

Fel-Pro is known for making parts that work well in the real world of repairs, and their 1057 Engine Cylinder Head Gasket is no different. This gasket is built to handle less-than-perfect sealing surfaces, which can happen during an engine rebuild. It’s designed to create a reliable seal, even when things aren't perfectly smooth.

This gasket uses a steel core laminate construction for strength and durability. It features a graphite or reinforced fiber facing material, along with steel armor, to ensure it holds up over time. You'll find precise, embossed Printoseal sealing beads in critical areas that help prevent leaks. Plus, it has a proprietary nonstick, anti-friction coating that helps seal up small imperfections on the engine block and cylinder head. Because it's a steel core design, you generally don't need to worry about retorquing the head bolts after installation, which simplifies the job.
