Engineered for high-output "Frankenstein" builds, the Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket provides a superior seal for engines using 81.5mm bores. This gasket is specifically designed to bridge the oiling and cooling passages between a non-VTEC bottom end and a VTEC cylinder head, requiring no additional sealants. The MLS construction features multiple layers of stainless steel to manage the shearing forces created by different expansion rates in aluminum and cast iron components.
The outer layers are embossed and finished with a Viton rubber coating, a fluoroelastomer material that is heat resistant up to 250°C (482°F). This specialized coating ensures a reliable seal across various surface finishes and load conditions, while the uncoated stainless steel shim layer allows for precise thickness management to achieve your desired compression ratio.

The Cometic C4208-030 Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) Exhaust Gasket is engineered to handle extreme cylinder pressures and the intense thermal cycles of high-performance engines. Unlike composite gaskets, this MLS exhaust manifold gasket maintains a precise torque set and is highly resistant to corrosion, ensuring it will not burn through or push out even under heavy boost or high EGTs.
The construction features embossed outer layers that conform to the sealing surface, meeting the demands of various load conditions and surface finishes. A stainless steel center shim allows for thickness consistency and structural integrity. Because the design optimizes load distribution across the sealing area, it requires less clamp load—resulting in reduced bore distortion compared to inferior gaskets.
