What a MLS Cylinder Head Gasket 75.5/.030″ does

A cylinder head or block gasket seals the joint between major engine castings so that combustion pressure, coolant and oil each stay in their own passages. The bore size and compressed thickness printed in the listing name matter: the bore should suit the bore of your block, and the thickness affects the compression ratio and the gap between the valves and pistons once the head is torqued down.

The Cometic C4251-030 is listed under part number C4251-030. Part numbers are the most reliable way to match a replacement, because two parts that look alike can differ in size, connection or mounting. If you have the old part in your hand, compare its markings with the C4251-030 code, and compare the photos on this page with what is on your car.

Choosing the right MLS Cylinder Head Gasket 75.5/.030″

Start with the Fitments tab on this page. It lists the makes, models and years that the Cometic C4251-030 is matched to on the MCG Autostyling system. Vehicle specifications can change by market, model year, engine code, body style and trim level, so a car that looks the same from the outside may still need a different part. Check your engine code and chassis code as well as the model name.

If your car has been modified, or has had parts swapped from another model, the part you need may not be the one the factory fitted. In that case, compare the MLS Cylinder Head Gasket 75.5/.030″ you are removing with the details and photos on this page before you order. If you are still unsure, contact MCG Autostyling with your vehicle details and registration, and the team can check the Cometic C4251-030 against your car.
