The Cometic MLS head gasket for 1992–1996 GM LT1 small block V8 (4.040" bore) uses multi-layer stainless steel construction with a compressed operating thickness of .120". Embossed outer layers coated with Viton provide heat-resistant sealing without sealants; a central uncoated shim layer allows thickness variation. MLS design manages differential shearing between head and block and resists corrosion while offering consistent load distribution.
