▶ Vehicle Fitments
The Cometic MLS Head Gasket for the 97 and up Honda Prelude H22A4 is a high-performance sealing component designed to withstand demanding engine conditions. Constructed with three layers of stainless steel, this gasket offers enhanced strength, resilience, and corrosion resistance. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material capable of enduring temperatures up to 2500°C (4820°F). This design ensures reliable sealing under high load and harsh environments, making it suitable for performance applications. The gasket's multilayer construction provides excellent rebound and durability, contributing to optimal engine compression and preventing leaks during intense driving conditions.
This gasket is specifically engineered for Honda Prelude models equipped with the H22A4 engine from 1997 onward. It is a direct replacement for the stock head gasket, offering a precise fit and sealing performance. Ideal for street, track, or high-performance builds, this MLS gasket ensures a secure seal even under elevated boost or compression levels. The kit includes the gasket itself, designed for easy installation on compatible engines. Proper fitment and sealing are maintained across various surface finishes and load conditions, making it a reliable upgrade for enthusiasts seeking durability and performance in their engine rebuilds or modifications.

Overview
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.
