Construction & Design
This head gasket features a state-of-the-art multi-layer steel (MLS) design, the industry standard for modern high-performance engines. The multiple steel layers provide exceptional strength and flexibility, allowing the gasket to maintain a tight, leak-free seal despite extreme thermal cycling and high cylinder pressures common in SRT8 engines.
The embossed outer layers are coated with Viton, a high-performance elastomer that resists degradation from oil, coolant, and combustion gases, significantly extending gasket life and reliability. The gasket’s .051 inch thickness is carefully engineered to maintain the correct combustion chamber volume and compression ratio, preserving the 6.1L Gen-3 Hemi’s performance characteristics. The 4.125 inch bore size matches factory cylinder dimensions precisely, ensuring optimal sealing around each cylinder.
Compatibility with aluminum sleeved blocks further enhances durability by reducing the risk of warping or gasket failure, making this gasket an excellent choice for both stock and modified engines.

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!
