K20A2/K20A3/K20Z1/K24A1 .051" MLS Cylinder Head Gasket, the ultimate choice for enthusiasts and professionals seeking superior sealing, durability, and performance. Engineered with cutting-edge Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) technology, this gasket outperforms all competitors, delivering unmatched reliability for high-output engines. Whether you're building a naturally aspirated, turbocharged, or nitrous-fed K-Series powerplant, this gasket is the definitive solution for maximizing performance and ensuring long-lasting durability.
Why Cometic?
The Cometic MLS Head Gasket is designed to dominate in the most demanding environments. Comprising three layers of premium stainless steel, it offers exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and rebound capability. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a high-performance fluoroelastomer rubber that withstands temperatures up to 250°C (482°F), ensuring a robust seal under extreme conditions. This advanced construction minimizes bore distortion, requires less clamp load, and eliminates the need for additional sealants, making it the top choice for both aluminum heads to aluminum blocks and aluminum heads to cast iron blocks. Unlike standard gaskets, the Cometic MLS provides a micro-seal for fluids, conforming perfectly to surface finishes for leak-free performance.
Features:
- Superior Sealing: Proprietary MLS design with Viton-coated outer layers ensures a perfect seal, even under high cylinder pressures.
- Enhanced Durability: Multiple stainless steel layers resist corrosion and maintain integrity in harsh environments.
- Reduced Bore Distortion: Engineered to distribute load evenly, preserving engine geometry for optimal performance.
- High-Temperature Resistance: Viton coating withstands temperatures up to 250°C (482°F), ideal for boosted or nitrous applications.
- No Retorquing Required: Embossed design promotes consistent clamp load, saving time and maintenance effort.
- Made in the USA: Crafted with precision in Cometic’s state-of-the-art facility in Concord, Ohio, ensuring top-tier quality.
