The Cometic C5709-020 is a high-performance Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket engineered specifically for Ford 2.3L OHC (overhead cam) engines. This precision-manufactured gasket features a 100mm bore diameter and a compressed thickness of 0.020 inches, providing an exceptional seal between the cylinder head and engine block.

Key Features:

• Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) construction for superior durability and reliability
• 0.020" compressed gasket thickness for precise compression ratio tuning
• 100mm bore diameter designed for Ford 2.3L OHC applications
• Advanced coating technology ensures optimal sealing and prevents corrosion
• Handles high cylinder pressures in performance and forced induction applications
• Engineered to accommodate thermal expansion and engine movement

Cometic MLS gaskets utilize multiple layers of stainless steel with proprietary coatings to create a gasket that recovers quickly from thermal cycles and maintains consistent clamping pressure. This design makes them ideal for both stock rebuilds and high-performance builds, including turbocharged and supercharged applications where cylinder pressures exceed OEM specifications.
