HEAD GASKET-COMPOSITE,T140 - Install metal center up towards cylinder head
Composite head gasket for the T140 cylinder head, install with the metal center facing up toward the head.
This is the head gasket for the T140 cylinder block, listed in the catalog under part number 71-4619 with the earlier form 13-37711 turning up as an alternate number for the same piece. It's a composite gasket, meaning it uses layered materials rather than a solid piece of copper or plain fiber, and it seals the joint between the cylinder block and the head where compression and combustion pressures need to stay contained.

One detail worth repeating because it comes straight off the part's own description: install it with the metal center facing up, toward the cylinder head. Getting the orientation backwards on a composite gasket like this can cause a leak or a blown seal shortly after startup, so it's worth double-checking before you torque the head down.
This one shows up in the catalog tied to the TR7RV cylinder block and head figure. If you're working on a different model in the range, check your own parts book or give us a call before ordering to make sure this is the correct gasket for your engine.
