Key Features
Cometic’s MLS head gasket incorporates advanced materials and design features to meet the rigorous demands of modern 5.7L HEMI engines:
- Multi-layer steel construction for enhanced strength and long-lasting durability
- Embossed outer layers coated with Viton rubber for superior sealing and heat resistance
- Compressed operating thickness of 0.030" to maintain optimal sealing under high pressure
- Designed to withstand shearing forces between aluminum heads and cast iron or aluminum blocks
- Corrosion-resistant stainless steel layers for extended service life
- Viton coating rated for heat resistance up to 250°C (482°F)
- Center shim layer of uncoated stainless steel for precise thickness control and rebound after compression
- No sealants required, simplifying installation and reducing potential failure points
- Right-hand side orientation for exact fitment on specified engines
Construction & Design
The Cometic MLS head gasket features multiple embossed layers of high-grade stainless steel, providing exceptional strength, flexibility, and resistance to warping. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a high-performance fluorocarbon elastomer known for its excellent heat resistance and chemical stability, ensuring a tight, leak-free seal even under extreme temperatures and varying surface finishes.
The gasket’s center shim layer is made from uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness control and the ability to rebound after compression. This multi-layer design expertly manages the differential expansion between aluminum cylinder heads and cast iron or aluminum blocks, preventing leaks and gasket failure over time. The corrosion-resistant materials and Viton coating contribute to a longer service life, making this gasket a reliable choice for demanding applications.
Installation & Fitment
This MLS head gasket is engineered for the right-hand side of the 5.7L VVT HEMI engine found in numerous Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler models from 2003 to 2015. Installation is straightforward, requiring no additional sealants, which streamlines the assembly process and reduces the risk of installation errors. For optimal sealing and longevity, it is important to follow the manufacturer’s recommended torque specifications and head bolt tightening sequences.

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!
