Product Information

The 2015-2017 Ford Mustang GT's Coyote 5.0 runs an open deck block, and that's the exact spot this Cometic MLX head gasket is built to seal. Per Cometic, the HP shim technology increases clampload around the combustion chamber, raising sealability around that open deck design. This is the left side (LHS) gasket for the Coyote 5.0.

Why Upgrade to This Cometic MLX Head Gasket

Per Cometic, here's what the HP shim technology does for this gasket:

  • Clampload increases around the combustion chamber, so the gasket is held down tighter right where it seals each cylinder.
  • That added clamping raises sealability around the open deck block on this Coyote application.

Fitment Notes

Fits the 2015-2017 Ford Mustang GT, Coyote 5.0 applications. Does not fit Mustang EcoBoost, GT350, or V6.

Install and Honest Talk

This is the left side (LHS) gasket only. If you're doing a full gasket job on this Coyote 5.0, you'll need the matching right side gasket too, so buy this one thinking it covers a single head, not the whole engine.

Cometic doesn't give us anything about the install itself beyond the HP shim clampload story: no torque sequence, no bolt reuse guidance, no box contents. What else you need: [VERIFY: install steps and hardware, contents of the box, supporting parts, tune requirement.]

No Robots. Just Car People.

Buying parts for your Mustang or F-150 should not feel like homework. Too many stores bury you in a giant catalog, slap the same distributor description on every product, and leave you guessing whether it even fits.


We do it the other way. We carry the brands you already trust, we tell you what a part actually does, and we give you the truth about the tradeoffs before you spend a dollar. Drone on that exhaust. Ride quality on those springs. Whether you need a tune. The stuff the big catalogs leave out.
