Comprised of multiple embossed layers of stainless steel with the outer layers utilizing a Viton rubber coating. Compressed operating thickness is 0.120". Cometic MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) Head Gaskets provide maximum sealing performance for todays high output engines and require no sealants. MLS gaskets are ideal for both aluminum heads to aluminum blocks and aluminum heads to cast iron blocks. They can withstand the shearing force created by the two materials. MLS gaskets have increased strength because they are comprised of multiple layers of stainless steel; which also creates the ability to rebound and resist corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated on both sides with Viton (a flour elastomer rubber based material that is heat resistant to 250 C/ 482 F). Viton is designed to meet the demands of a variety of harsh sealing environments, load conditions, and surface finishes. The center or shim layer is uncoated stainless steel, which can be varied to accommodate multiple thickness requirements.

  • The embossed outer layers of the gaskets meet the demands of a variety of harsh sealing environments, load conditions, and surface finishes
  • The center or shim layer is an uncoated stainless steel layer which can be varied to accommodate multiple thickness requirements
  • Requires less clamp load creating less bore distortion
  • Conforms load distribution across the sealing area
  • Embossed Outer Layers Coated w/Viton

Why Drivers Choose FAST of West Chester

  • I can't recommend this place enough. Being able to trust a shop in the performance world is big. The 2hr drive to get there, is worth knowing the job will be done right. Very happy to have found this shop, to
    support my builds going forward.

    Donald Wojnar

  • I recently had the pleasure of working with FAST of West Chester for some performance upgrades on my 2022 WRX, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. I opted for a Borla S-Type exhaust and Cygnus Coilovers, and the team at FAST nailed the installation, fitment, and setup to a T.

    Adam Cranston

  • The team at FAST are excellence in every way. First, I consulted with Dave on mods for my HPDE track car. He listened and advised me on the best parts & mods to achieve my goals. He was patient & gave me space to research the options presented & worked with me through several changes before we built. Second, the build execution was flawless, proper heat shielding, bracing and poly everywhere. All components worked as advertised.

    Bryce Budd

  • This place has been my go to shop for all things Subaru. From simple service to performance parts and tuning, they have been top notch.

    William Brunell

  • Excellent shop. They installed a Cobb Stage 2 DP and Whiteline Sway bars and end links on my 2013 WRX. The work was done right and clean. The estimate was accurate. They were very knowledgeable, friendly and gave me the straight scoop on exactly what I was getting for the money
    and what I needed to get where I want to be with it. I'd recommend them
    to any car enthusiast.
