The Cometic MLS cylinder head gasket for Ford Windsor V8 with AFR heads and a 4.030 in bore is listed with a compressed operating thickness of 0.036 in. Constructed from multiple embossed stainless steel layers with Viton-coated outer faces, it resists corrosion and high temperatures and requires no sealants. The uncoated center shim provides thickness options while MLS design tolerates aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-iron combinations, reducing clamp load and limiting bore distortion.
