Specification
Description
The Cometic Gaskets Olds V8 MLS Head Gasket is engineered for superior sealing in high-performance applications. Constructed with multiple layers of stainless steel, it offers enhanced strength, rebound ability, and corrosion resistance. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a flouroelastomer rubber material that withstands temperatures up to 482°F (250°C), ensuring durability in harsh environments. This gasket is ideal for both aluminum heads to cast iron blocks and aluminum heads to aluminum blocks, effectively handling the shearing forces between different materials. Its design promotes even torque load across the sealing surface, reducing bore distortion and eliminating the need for re-torquing. With a 4.270-inch bore and 0.045-inch compressed thickness, this gasket is suitable for Oldsmobile V8 engines ranging from 330 to 455 cubic inches.
