MULTI-LAYER STEEL HEAD GASKETS
SOLVE SEALING ISSUES ON 2.5L ‘BOXER’ ENGINES
SITUATION:
FEL-PRO SOLUTION:
Doing another HG replacement on a 2.5L engine? Thousands of Subaru
2.5L SOHC “Boxer” engines may be susceptible to sealing problems related
to the composite-style original equipment head gaskets. Today’s lightweight
engine designs present tough challenges for head gaskets. Increased
casting motion between the head and block surfaces on these engines can
quickly cause crushing and scrubbing damage to the composite gaskets.
As a world leader in MLS gasket technology, Federal-Mogul has introduced
two next-generation Fel-Pro
®
PermaTorque
®
MLS head gaskets that eliminate
sealing concerns on the full range of Subaru 2.5L SOHC and DOHC engines
dating back to the 1996 model year.
The new Fel-Pro PermaTorque MLS head gaskets combine Federal-Mogul’s
aftermarket-proven MLS technologies with a next-generation stopper-layer
design developed and validated in partnership with leading pe rformance
engine builders.
The new Fel-Pro LaserWeld
™
stopper layer provides a precisely engineered
compression limiter that eliminates combustion sealing concerns on even
the most challenging turbocharged applications. LaserWeld technology is
now a standard feature of the PermaTorque MLS head gaskets for these
Subaru engines. And the corresponding Fel-Pro “HS” sets (head sets)
include all of the gaskets needed to complete the job.
