Product Details

The Cometic C5478-036 is a high-performance Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket engineered specifically for Ford 302 and 351W Windsor V8 engines. This precision-manufactured gasket features a 4.030-inch bore diameter and .036-inch compressed thickness, making it ideal for performance builds and engine rebuilds requiring reliable sealing under high cylinder pressures.

Key Features:

  • Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) construction provides superior sealing and durability compared to composite gaskets
  • 4.030-inch bore diameter accommodates stock and slightly over-bored cylinders
  • .036-inch compressed thickness for precise compression ratio tuning
  • Designed for Ford 302/351W Windsor V8 applications including SVO builds
  • Exceptional resistance to combustion pressure and temperature extremes
  • Eliminates head lift and gasket failure common with lesser gaskets in high-performance applications

Cometic's MLS gaskets feature multiple layers of stainless steel with advanced coating technology that allows the gasket to recover and maintain seal integrity through repeated thermal cycles. The embossed sealing beads provide even loading around combustion chambers, oil passages, and coolant ports for reliable long-term sealing.

I ordered a set of inner tie rods for my car from Autoplicity and found their prices to be the lowest online for the brand I was looking for. Items were ship out in 2 business days from the original manufacturer. Shipping prices were kind of on the expensive end considering the package size and weight so if Autoplicity adjust their shipping prices to be more competitive, I think their service and pricing would be hard to beat!

I was very pleased with my transaction with Autoplicity. My order was shipped the next day and received the following day. The pricing was also the best I could find. I would definitely buy from them again and recommend them to others.

very prompt service,items were in stock and shipped next day,salesman was helpful and friendly.Will place in favorites and do buisness with again.

Nice and quick. Well scripted to take customer info straight from paypal. That was what...4 clicks? Nice!

Lowest prices, free and fast shipping, excellent product.

I'll start off saying that Autoplicity's prices are unbeatable...but, I placed my order on a Saturday night (which I know is the weekend)on a in stock part and it took them till the following Thursday to ship it out. I use my truck to make a living and was hoping to get it a little quicker, but now I'm down another 3-4 days till the part gets here. Also, I sent a e-mail on Tuesday evening regaurding my order and never got a response.
