AFE/PFADT suggest the use of Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS)
Header Gaskets. MLS head gaskets are comprised of three or five
layers of stainless spring steel. The outer layers are an embossed
Viton coated stainless steel providing a superior seal with
excellent rebound characteristics and are corrosive resistant. MLS
head gaskets reduce bore distortion and withstand extreme cylinder
pressures. The MLS design is also used in a superior line of
exhaust manifold/header gaskets.
MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) Exhaust Gaskets
Are designed for extreme cylinder pressures. MLS Exhaust
Manifold Gaskets maintain a torque set and resist corrosion. They
will not burn through or push out. MLS Exhaust Manifold Gaskets
withstand different combinations of cylinder head and exhaust
manifold materials. No sealants are required.
Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gaskets go on dry because
they are coated with a sealant. Each MLS head gasket is coated with
a .001" thick Viton rubber that is bonded to the outer stainless
steel layers. Adding an additional sealer can hinder the
performance of an MLS head gasket.
