The Cometic Gaskets C15362-044 Dart LS-Next MLX cylinder head gasket is designed for GM LS-Series engines using Dart blocks. This passenger-side gasket features a 4.200-inch bore opening and 0.044-inch compressed thickness, providing a precise sealing interface between the cylinder head and engine block. It is supplied as one individual gasket for targeted engine assembly or replacement applications.
Constructed with Cometic’s Multi-Layer Steel, or MLS, design, this head gasket is engineered to support dependable sealing across the combustion chamber, coolant passages, and oil passages. The layered steel construction helps the gasket conform to compatible sealing surfaces while maintaining consistent clamping performance under demanding operating conditions. Its configuration is intended for Dart LS-Next applications and should be matched to the engine’s block, cylinder head, bore size, and required compression thickness before installation.
The C15362-044 uses a right-hand-side layout, making correct orientation and placement important during assembly. For best results, inspect the block and cylinder head surfaces, confirm that the surfaces meet the engine builder’s finish requirements, and follow the recommended torque sequence and fastener specifications. Proper preparation helps maximize gasket performance and reduces the risk of leaks or sealing issues. Choose the Cometic Gaskets C15362-044 when a purpose-built MLS head gasket is required for a Dart block and GM LS-Series engine combination.
