Cometic C8377 Copper Head Gasket Thickness - 1568cc 020

The Cometic C8377 is a high-performance copper head gasket designed for 1568cc engines requiring a .020 inch (0.51mm) compressed thickness. Constructed from solid copper material, this gasket provides superior thermal conductivity and conformability compared to traditional multi-layer steel gaskets, making it ideal for high-compression and turbocharged applications.

Key Features:

• 1568cc bore configuration for precise fitment
• .020 inch compressed thickness for optimal compression ratio tuning
• Solid copper construction provides excellent heat dissipation
• Superior sealing properties under extreme cylinder pressures
• Reusable design when properly maintained and surfaces are re-prepared
• Ideal for racing, high-performance street, and forced induction engines

Cometic gaskets are manufactured using advanced materials and precision manufacturing processes to ensure consistent quality and reliable performance. Copper head gaskets require proper surface preparation and should be used with copper spray sealant on both sides for optimal sealing. These gaskets are particularly well-suited for aluminum heads on iron blocks or aluminum-to-aluminum applications where thermal expansion differences must be accommodated.
