Product Details

This MAHLE Original head gasket set is built with a multi-layer steel (MLS) construction, a design choice that offers improved sealing under demanding engine conditions. If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1997 Ford Expedition, a fresh set of head gaskets is crucial for proper cylinder sealing and preventing coolant or oil leaks between the block and the cylinder heads. These gaskets are designed to meet the specific requirements of your Expedition's engine.

MAHLE Original is a well-known name in engine components, and this gasket set reflects that reputation. The multi-layer steel design is a modern approach that handles the thermal expansion and contraction of engine components better than older composite materials. While this set includes the head gaskets, remember that it's highly recommended to replace your cylinder head bolts whenever you're doing this kind of work, as they can stretch and lose their clamping force over time. New bolts ensure the gaskets seal correctly and maintain that seal throughout their service life.
