• Restoration of compression and sealing integrity in Mitsubishi engines

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm engine code and gasket layout before installation, since fitment is application-specific. Cylinder head bolts are not included and replacement is recommended, especially on torque-to-yield applications. Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly, inspect the cylinder head for warpage, and follow the manufacturer’s torque sequence and angle specifications during assembly. Verify that all sealing surfaces are dry and free of old gasket material before final installation.
