Head Gasket |
| |
Cometic multi layer steel (MLS) head
gaskets replace the factory head gasket. By using the same design as the
factory gasket with a thicker inner layer, combustion chamber volume is
increased. Increasing chamber volume decreases compression ratio. The
factory compression ratio is 11:1. The reduced ratio with the
recommended gasket thickness is approximately 9.7:1. The increased
crushed thickness is made up of a new five layer design increasing the
thickness from the factory .030" thickness to .075". This reduced compression ratio
allows more aggressive pressure and tuning for power levels up to 380
wheel horsepower and more.
ScienceofSpeed recommends a properly prepared sleeved short block with
forged low compression pistons installed for power levels above 400 wheel horsepower.
Other
thicknesses and bore sizes are available by custom order. |
