FE Technical Forum / Re: Cometic MLS head gasket misbuilt?

You do not want the gasket to be directly exposed to the combustion events of the combustion chamber; generally a minimum of say .030"-.060" set-back from the exposure area is best to shield the gasket from the direct resultant heat and pressure effects of combustion.
I would doubt that the gaskets' embossment positioning would permit "trimming" of the gaskets profile in this critical area and still remain viable in its' sealing responsibilities; but look, maybe..................?
