Product Description

The Cometic C4548-030 MLS head gasket is engineered for high-performance applications in the 2.4L Turbocharged engines found in the 2003-2005 Dodge Neon SRT-4 and 2004-2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser GT / Limited models. With a compressed thickness of .030" (~0.76 mm), this gasket is designed to withstand the high pressures and temperatures associated with turbocharged engines, making it ideal for both stock and modified setups.

The gasket features a three-layer construction, with the outer layers coated in Viton for enhanced resistance to heat, corrosion, and chemical exposure. This design ensures a reliable seal between the cylinder head and block, even under extreme conditions. The 87.5 mm bore diameter matches OEM specifications, and the gasket is compatible with both aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, eliminating the need for additional sealants.

Installation of the C4548-030 gasket requires proper surface preparation and torque specifications to ensure optimal performance. It is recommended for use in high-boost applications where enhanced sealing is necessary to prevent leaks and maintain engine integrity.
