Product Information

Cometic's .040in MLX head gasket seals the right side (RHS) of the 5.0L Gen-3 Coyote V8, built for the 2018-2025 Ford Mustang GT, Bullitt, Mach 1, and Dark Horse, plus the 2018-2020 Ford F-150 Base. It's sized for a 94.5mm bore. Per Cometic, its HP shim technology raises clamp load around the combustion chamber to hold the seal on this engine's open deck block.

Why Upgrade to Cometic's MLX Head Gasket

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

  • Built on HP shim technology as part of the MLX design.
  • Adds clampload right around the combustion chamber.
  • That extra clampload gives a tighter seal around the open deck block.

Fitment Notes

This RHS head gasket fits the 5.0L Coyote in the 2018-2025 Ford Mustang GT, Bullitt (2019-2020), Mach 1 (2021-2023), and Dark Horse (2024-2025), plus the 2018-2020 Ford F-150 Base. Does not fit the F-150 Raptor, or the Mustang EcoBoost, GTD, GT500, or GT350.

Install and Honest Talk

This listing is the right-hand-side (RHS) gasket only. If you're doing a full head gasket job on both banks, you'll need the left-hand-side counterpart too, it isn't included here. Cometic built this one around HP shim technology to hold clampload and sealability at the combustion chamber on the open deck block once it's torqued down, but a head gasket only seals as well as the install behind it. What else you need: [VERIFY: head bolts or studs and torque procedure, gasket sealant if called for, and whether a tune is required.]

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.
