Product Details

The Cometic C5245-036 is a multi-layer steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket engineered specifically for Chevrolet Generation 1 small block V8 engines. This precision gasket features a .036" compressed thickness and a 4.060" bore diameter, making it ideal for performance builds and applications requiring reliable sealing under high combustion pressures.

Key Features:

  • Multi-layer steel construction with multiple layers of stainless steel for superior sealing and durability
  • 4.060" round bore design accommodates standard and mild overbore applications
  • .036" compressed gasket thickness allows for precise compression ratio tuning
  • Compatible with 18-degree and 23-degree cylinder head configurations
  • Engineered for Chevrolet Gen-1 small block V8 engines including 265, 283, 302, 305, 327, 350, and 400 cubic inch variants
  • MLS technology provides excellent recovery and maintains seal integrity through heat cycles
  • Eliminates the need for additional sealants in most applications

Cometic's MLS head gaskets are a proven choice for street performance, racing, and high-boost forced induction applications where conventional composite gaskets may fail. The layered stainless steel design conforms to minor surface imperfections while maintaining consistent clamping force across the entire sealing surface.

Had the product I needed at a price that couldn't be beat. The shipping was a little high, but not completely out of line, either, and it was still better than other companies who have even MORE ridiculous shipping rates. Will buy from them in the future if they have what I need.

make it work right and I'll be back!

Great price and fast shipping!

Great prices and easy transaction

Best price I could find on line, shipped really fast. With how low the price is I was worried but everything came fast and it was the correct parts. This place really keeps the cost of racing down.

Had to upgrade to a Snell 2010 helmet this year, bought the identical helmet for $200 less than I paid 8 years ago! Fast shipping, I will be checking Autoplicity first in the future!

GOOD PRICE! way to go keep up the good work!!!!
