Detailed Description

Mahle designs sealing products for applications where consistent clamp load, surface conformity, and long-term sealing performance matter. The HS54661C head gasket set uses multi-layer steel construction for the cylinder head and exhaust manifold gaskets, helping maintain sealing integrity under heat cycling and combustion pressure. The molded rubber intake manifold gasket supports a secure seal at the intake side, while the included miscellaneous gaskets and seals address related service points during engine repair. This part cross-references Fel-Pro HS 26376 PT-2 for the same application.

For Chevrolet Malibu, Saturn Vue, Pontiac G6, Pontiac G8, and Saturn Aura service, the HS54661C provides the sealing components needed for cylinder head repair work on the listed model years. The part number HS54661C is the reference to verify during ordering and installation.

Common Repair Uses

• Head gasket failure causing coolant loss or combustion leakage
• Compression loss from a damaged cylinder head seal
• Oil and coolant mixing from sealing surface failure
• Intake manifold sealing issues during top-end engine service
• Exhaust manifold sealing concerns during cylinder head repair

Installation Notes

Confirm engine code and vehicle application before installation. Because this is a torque-to-yield application, follow the factory tightening sequence and torque procedure exactly. Cylinder head bolts are not included, and replacement is recommended during service. Inspect the cylinder head and block for flatness, clean all mating surfaces thoroughly, and replace any worn fasteners or damaged sealing surfaces before assembly.
