The Cometic MLS Head Gasket for Subaru Impreza and Legacy EJ20EN models is a high-performance sealing component designed to withstand demanding engine 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 with a Viton rubber-based material, which is heat resistant up to 2500°C (4820°F), ensuring reliable sealing in harsh environments. The gasket's multilayer steel design provides durability and consistent compression, making it suitable for high-performance and modified engines. Its precise bore size of 93mm ensures proper fitment and sealing integrity for turbocharged or naturally aspirated setups.

This gasket is intended for use in Subaru Impreza and Legacy models equipped with the EJ20EN engine, typically from 1993 onward. It is a direct replacement head gasket designed for engines requiring a bore of 93mm and a .040-inch thickness. The kit includes two gaskets, suitable for engines with dual head bolts, and is ideal for performance upgrades, rebuilds, or restoring engine integrity. Installation involves standard head gasket replacement procedures, ensuring a secure seal for street, race, or off-road applications. Compatibility with specific chassis codes and engine configurations should be verified prior to installation.

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.
