The Cometic MLS head gasket for GM LS Gen-3/4 small block V8 (4.000 in bore) is a multi-layer steel cylinder head gasket with a compressed operating thickness of 0.086 in. It seals modern high-output engines without sealants and suits aluminum-to-aluminum or aluminum-to-iron assemblies. Constructed from embossed stainless steel layers with Viton-coated outer faces and an uncoated shim center, the gasket resists corrosion, rebounds under load, distributes sealing loads evenly, and reduces required clamp load to limit bore distortion.
