what exactly is a mls metal head gasket and where do i get one??
i am plannin on eventually going turbo on my n/t and i am just gonna slowly put together all of the parts and build it up slowly.. and is it okay to have mls metal head gasket on without the turbo in yet??
 
Glad u asked man. I have an MLS headgasket sitting in my bedroom for when I rebuild my engine. U can get them from ther dealership. I got mie from the Chrysler dealer about 20 mins away from my place. They said that they started using the MLS ( multi-layer steel ) because the first few runs of the 420A engines in the Neon were blowing the headgaskets on a too regular basis.

Can't wait to start rebuilding!:D
 
yeah, its perfectly fine to run around with that headgasket. It is now a stock replacement. In fact when they switched out my block (spun bearing, long story) they put the MLS on my car. We also just swapped the headgasket out on a fellow carolina dsm member's RS for the MLS because his other one was leaking. And FYI all of the 2GNT cars came with a single layer headgasket, so I dont know why they say early production cars as if they changed how they were doing things. In all honesty, it would be a good idea to put the MLS on any car, but it is a hell of a lot work
 
I know your response was all in fun ( Honda Hunter ), but if you think about it I answered your question when I said that the Neon came with them. Since when did a Neon ever come from the factory with a turbo? Neon/ no turbo/ MLS gasket........ okay for you to use one without turbo.

This message is all in good fun too tho!!!!

I think all cars should have one.
