Cometic C5913-036 Ford Windsor MLS Cylinder Head Gasket Bore Thick - V8 4.200 036

The Cometic C5913-036 is a Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket specifically engineered for Ford Windsor V8 engines equipped with AFR (Air Flow Research) cylinder heads. This precision gasket features a 4.200-inch bore diameter and a .036-inch compressed thickness, providing excellent sealing performance for high-performance and racing applications.

Key Features:

• Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) construction for superior sealing and durability
• 4.200-inch bore diameter accommodates performance builds with oversized pistons
• .036-inch compressed thickness allows for fine-tuning compression ratios
• Designed specifically for use with AFR aftermarket cylinder heads
• Compatible with Ford Windsor small block V8 engines (289, 302, 351W)
• Embossed stainless steel layers with FKM (fluoroelastomer) coating resist high temperatures and combustion pressures
• Allows for more spark plug clearance and better head gasket seal than conventional composite gaskets

Cometic's MLS gaskets feature multiple layers of stainless steel with specialized coatings that provide exceptional recovery and reusability. The embossed design creates micro-sealing beads that conform to imperfections in the cylinder head and block surfaces, making them ideal for performance engines that generate high cylinder pressures and temperatures. This gasket is sold individually and requires proper surface preparation and torque specifications for optimal performance.
