It has a 101mm round bore and comes in a choice of compressed thicknesses, so you can match the stock deck height or set the compression ratio on a rebuilt engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCometic's MLX (Multi-Layer Xtreme) gasket adds a fold-over stopper layer around each bore. The stopper acts as a torque-limiting surface that stops the combustion seal from yielding, which suits high-boost engines with high cylinder pressure. Coated, embossed layers seal the coolant and oil passages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOptions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompressed thickness: 0.81mm (.032\"), 1.12mm (.044\"), 1.52mm (.060\"). Thicker gaskets lower compression; match the thickness to your engine builder's spec.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sold individually – an EJ engine needs two, one for each head. For EJ255 and EJ257 engines from 2007, choose the Version 2 gasket instead.
