Victor Reinz 61-54240-00 Cylinder Head Gasket

The Victor Reinz 61-54240-00 is an MLS engine cylinder head gasket built for secure sealing under high combustion pressure and extreme temperature changes. It is a direct-fit sealing component for select Toyota Tacoma, Tundra, 4Runner, and T100 applications with left-side fitment.

Key Features

  • MLS (multi-layer steel) construction for durable head sealing
  • Multi-piece configuration for the specified engine application
  • 0.0550 thickness for precise sealing stack-up
  • 3.7700 cylinder bore diameter
  • Regular grade type for standard replacement service
  • No gasket sealant included

Detailed Description

Victor Reinz cylinder head gaskets are engineered for reliable macro and micro sealing between the cylinder head and engine block, helping maintain separation of fuel, oil, water, and anti-freeze passages. The 61-54240-00 uses MLS construction to support consistent sealing performance in engines exposed to heat cycling and combustion pressure. This part cross-references MAHLE 54138A for the same application. For Toyota Tacoma, Toyota Tundra, and Toyota 4Runner cylinder head gasket replacement, Victor Reinz 61-54240-00 provides the specified fitment and sealing dimensions.

What It Helps Address

  • Coolant leakage at the cylinder head sealing surface
  • Oil seepage between the head and block
  • Compression loss from a compromised head gasket
  • Cross-contamination between coolant and oil passages
  • Sealing failure after overheating or repeated thermal cycling

Installation Notes and Tips

  • Confirm left-side engine application before ordering.
  • Inspect the cylinder head and block surfaces for warpage, corrosion, or residue before installation.
  • Follow factory torque sequence and torque-angle procedures during assembly.
  • Replacement notes indicate some applications require a cylinder head gasket set; bolts are not included.
  • Verify engine code and model-year details for your Toyota Tacoma, Tundra, 4Runner, or T100 before installation.

Quality Assurance

Victor Reinz uses OE-proven materials and sealing designs developed from Dana Incorporated engineering resources. The 61-54240-00 is built to meet the demands of modern combustion engines and support lasting sealing performance in service.
