The Cometic MLS cylinder head gasket for Chevrolet 348/409 W-Series Big Block V8 (.045in nominal, 4.375in bore) uses multiple embossed stainless steel layers to deliver reliable sealing for high-output engines. Outer layers are coated with Viton for heat and sealing resilience while the uncoated stainless center shim can be adjusted for thickness. No sealants are required; the gasket resists corrosion, withstands shearing between dissimilar metals and helps limit bore distortion.
