Part #: C5526-045
Overview
The Cometic Gasket Aluminum MLS Head Gasket is a high-performance sealing solution engineered specifically for Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep SRT8 models equipped with the 6.1L Gen-3 Hemi engine. Designed to provide a reliable, leak-free seal between the cylinder head and engine block, this gasket is ideal for both enthusiasts and professional builders who demand durability and precision in their engine builds.
Its multi-layer steel (MLS) construction accommodates the unique thermal expansion differences between aluminum heads and cast iron or aluminum blocks, ensuring consistent sealing under extreme conditions. This gasket eliminates the need for additional sealants, simplifying installation while maintaining engine efficiency and longevity during high-output and daily driving applications.
Key Features
Built with advanced materials and precision engineering, the Cometic MLS Head Gasket offers:
- Multi-layer steel construction for superior strength and durability
- Embossed outer layers coated with Viton rubber for exceptional heat and chemical resistance
- Compressed operating thickness of 0.036" for precise and consistent sealing
- Compatibility with aluminum heads to aluminum or cast iron blocks, resisting shearing forces
- Corrosion-resistant stainless steel layers that rebound to maintain a tight seal
- Center shim layer of uncoated stainless steel customizable for thickness requirements
- Specifically designed for Chrysler 6.1L Gen-3 Hemi engines with a 4.125" bore
- Eliminates the need for additional sealants, reducing installation complexity
- Heat resistance up to 250°C (482°F) thanks to Viton coating
Construction & Design
This gasket features multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, providing exceptional strength and flexibility to withstand the rigors of high-performance engines. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a high-performance fluorocarbon elastomer known for its outstanding heat resistance and durability in harsh sealing environments. This ensures a reliable seal even under extreme thermal and mechanical stress.
The center shim layer is made from uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness adjustments to meet specific engine requirements. This multi-layer design effectively manages the differential expansion between aluminum cylinder heads and cast iron or aluminum blocks, preventing leaks and gasket failure during demanding driving conditions.

What does the Available to Promise date mean?
ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
