- Compressed operating thickness of 0.036 inches, optimized for precise sealing and durability
- Embossed outer layers improve gasket-to-surface contact and sealing integrity
- Center shim layer of uncoated stainless steel allows for customizable thickness and improved sealing
- Designed to resist corrosion and withstand shearing forces between aluminum heads and cast iron blocks
- Compatible with World Products Man-o-War blocks and other high-performance engine configurations
- No sealants required, simplifying installation and reducing potential leak points
- Specifically engineered for Chrysler 6.1L Gen-3 HEMI engines with a 4.125-inch bore and aluminum sleeved blocks
Construction & Design
The Cometic Aluminum MLS Head Gasket features a robust multi-layer steel design that balances durability with flexibility to maintain a tight, reliable seal under extreme combustion pressures and thermal cycling. The stainless steel layers provide structural integrity and corrosion resistance, while the embossed outer layers coated with Viton rubber enhance sealing against the cylinder head and block surfaces.
Viton, a high-performance fluoroelastomer, is selected for its exceptional heat resistance and chemical stability, making it ideal for the harsh environment inside the combustion chamber. The gasket’s 0.036-inch compressed thickness is carefully engineered to balance sealing capability with the necessary compliance to accommodate slight variations in engine block and head surfaces, ensuring long-lasting performance.

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!
