Cometic Gaskets .040" MLS Cylinder Head Gasket for Honda Acura 1.6L D16Z6/D16Y5/D16Y7/D16Y8 76mm - C4195-040

If you're diving into the world of high-performance engines, you need a head gasket that can keep up with the power you're pushing. That's where the COMETIC MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) Head Gasket comes into play. I've been around the block with these gaskets, and let me tell you, they deliver top-notch sealing performance for those high-output engines we all love. No sealants needed—just a straightforward, reliable fit.

These MLS gaskets shine whether you're pairing aluminum heads with aluminum blocks or mixing it up with cast iron. They handle the shearing forces like a champ, thanks to their multi-layer stainless steel construction. This isn't just any steel; it’s tough stuff that rebounds and resists corrosion, giving you peace of mind on those long drives or track days.

The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a flouroelastomer rubber that can take the heat—literally. It’s rated for temperatures up to 250°C (482°F), so you know it’s built for the harshest environments. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, which is adjustable to meet different thickness needs, making it versatile for various setups.

Now, if you're working with a Honda or Acura D16 engine, this 76mm MLS head gasket is a perfect match. It’s got a compressed operating thickness of .040", which is just right for those 1.6L SOHC engines. Here’s a quick rundown of the specs:

  • Bore Diameter: 76mm
  • Engine Compatibility: Honda/Acura D16Z6/D16Y5/D16Y7/D16Y8 1.6L SOHC
  • Thickness: .040"

This gasket fits a range of models, including:

  • Acura EL (1997-2000)
  • Honda Civic (1992-2000)
  • Honda del Sol (1993-1997)

So, if you're looking to boost your engine's performance and reliability, this C4195-040 Cometic Gasket is worth considering. It’s a solid choice that I’d trust for my own builds. Just remember, when you’re cranking up the power, you want a gasket that can handle the heat—and this one does.
