Description

The Cometic C5038-051 is a high-performance head gasket engineered for Gen V LT engines, specifically utilizing the advanced MLX (Multi-Layer Stopper) technology. This innovative design incorporates an integrated stopper layer that provides superior combustion chamber sealing and increases clamp load around the cylinder without inducing bore distortion. Constructed from durable multi-layered steel, this gasket offers a compressed thickness of .051" and a bore opening of 4.100", making it suitable for specific high-performance applications. This gasket is designed for direct fitment on Chevrolet Camaro models from 2016-2019 and Chevrolet Corvette models from 2014-2019. The MLX technology, derived from Cometic's MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) Head Gaskets, ensures robust sealing capabilities. A key benefit of this design is that no sealants or re-torquing are required after installation, simplifying the assembly process and ensuring reliable, long-term performance. Key specifications include its multi-layered steel construction, a bore opening of 4.100 inches, and a compressed thickness of 0.051 inches. The production time is estimated at 2-3 weeks, with shipping taking an additional 2-5 business days, leading to an estimated delivery time of 2-4 weeks.
