The Cometic MLS Head Gasket for the 1974-1981 Toyota Celica and Corona 2.2L 20R engine is a high-performance sealing component designed to withstand demanding conditions. Constructed with three layers of stainless steel, this gasket offers enhanced strength, excellent rebound properties, and superior corrosion resistance. The outer layers are embossed and coated on both sides with a Viton rubber-based material, which is heat resistant up to 2500°C (4820°F). This multilayer steel design ensures a reliable seal under high compression and thermal stress, making it suitable for both stock and modified engines. The gasket’s durable construction helps maintain optimal compression and prevents leaks, contributing to improved engine performance and longevity.

This gasket is specifically designed for use in Toyota Celica and Corona models from 1974 to 1981 with a 2.2L 20R engine. It provides a direct replacement for the stock head gasket, ensuring proper fitment and sealing integrity. Ideal for rebuilds, performance upgrades, or restoring original specifications, this MLS gasket is suitable for street and mild track applications. Installation involves standard head gasket replacement procedures, and the kit includes the gasket itself. Compatibility with other engine configurations is not recommended unless specified, ensuring precise fitment and reliable sealing for your vintage Toyota engine.

Overview

The Cometic MLS gasket is comprised of three layers of Stainless Steel. Cometic uses Stainless steel for increased strength, its ability to rebound and corrosion resistance. The outer layers of the gasket are embossed and coated on both sides with a flouroelastomer rubber based material (Viton) designed to meet the demands of a variety of harsh sealing environments, load conditions and surface finishes. The Viton coating is heat resistant to 2500C or 4820F.

The center or shim layer of the gasket is comprised of an uncoated Stainless Steel layer, which can be varied to accommodate multiple thickness requirements. The MLS gasket is ideal for both aluminum heads to cast iron blocks and aluminum heads to aluminum blocks.

The composition of MLS will also withstand the shearing forces created by aluminum heads on cast iron blocks. No re-torque is necessary. By design the MLS gasket promotes an even torque load across the sealing surface allowing for measurable reduced bore distortion.
