Fel-Pro Ford Taurus HS 9885 PT-4 PermaTorque Engine Cylinder Head Gasket Set

If you're working on the top end of your 1999 or 2000 Ford Taurus, this Fel-Pro PermaTorque engine cylinder head gasket set is what you need. Head gaskets are critical for sealing the combustion chambers, oil passages, and coolant passages between the engine block and cylinder head. A proper seal prevents coolant from entering the cylinders or oil passages, and keeps combustion gases from escaping. Fel-Pro designs these gaskets specifically for the realities of engine repair, meaning they can handle imperfect sealing surfaces that you might encounter during a rebuild.

What sets these Fel-Pro gaskets apart is their PermaTorque design. They feature a steel core for strength and durability, often with graphite or reinforced fiber facing material. This construction helps eliminate the need to retorque head bolts after installation, which is a common step with some other gasket types. They also come with a proprietary non-stick, anti-friction coating that helps seal minor scratches or imperfections on the mating surfaces, giving you a more reliable seal right out of the box.
