Product Description

The Cometic C4261-070 is a Multi-Layer Steel cylinder head gasket built for the Subaru EJ20GN and EJ205 turbocharged engines. With a 93mm bore and a thicker 0.070-inch compressed profile, this gasket is well-suited for engine rebuilds where head or block surfaces have been decked, or where compression ratio needs to be reduced in high-boost applications. It installs dry - no additional sealant needed - making for a straightforward, reliable build process.

The three-layer stainless steel construction with Viton-coated outer surfaces ensures exceptional resistance to heat, pressure, and corrosion - critical for any forced-induction platform. Whether you're refreshing a WRX, building an STI, or restoring a Legacy Turbo, the C4261-070 delivers the precise fitment and durability that performance builders rely on from Cometic.
