This head gasket is specifically designed for Honda B16A2, B16A3, B17A1, B18C1, and B18C5 engines. Cometic MLS gaskets are the preferred choice for performance enthusiasts and engine builders who demand reliable sealing under extreme conditions.

Why Choose MLS Technology:

Multi-Layer Steel gaskets provide independent sealing layers that adapt to flange movement and surface irregularities, creating multiple sealing points. This design allows the gasket to maintain seal integrity through heat cycles and under high boost pressure, making it ideal for performance and racing applications.
