Proper cylinder sealing is essential whether you’re repairing a stock engine or building a modified 5.7L VVT Gen 3 HEMI, and this OEM Mopar Cylinder Head Gasket Set gives you both factory gaskets needed for the job. The set includes 53022306AC for the left cylinder head and 53022307AC for the right cylinder head, providing a convenient matched package for compatible 2009-2023 5.7L VVT HEMI applications. Each gasket is manufactured as a genuine Mopar replacement and designed around the factory block and cylinder head sealing surfaces. With both sides included, you can prepare for complete cylinder head service without having to purchase the left and right gaskets individually.

The head gasket creates one of the most critical seals inside the engine. It must contain combustion pressure while maintaining separation between the cylinders, engine oil passages, and cooling system. Repeated heat cycles, high mileage, overheating, detonation, or other engine problems can eventually compromise an existing gasket. When cylinder heads are removed, replacing the original gaskets with new components is essential to proper engine reassembly.

This set is especially valuable for Gen 3 HEMI performance builds that require cylinder head removal. Camshaft and lifter upgrades, MDS delete projects, cylinder head porting, valvetrain repairs, and complete engine rebuilds can all involve substantial disassembly. Starting reassembly with fresh OEM head gaskets helps protect the time and money invested in the project while giving the cylinder heads a fresh sealing surface against the block.

Because this package uses genuine Mopar components, fitment is based on the original 5.7L VVT HEMI architecture rather than a universal gasket design. The left and right gaskets are application-specific, which is why both 53022306AC and 53022307AC are included. Correct orientation and proper installation procedures should always be followed during engine assembly.

Compatibility covers 2009-2023 5.7L HEMI engines equipped with VVT, including select Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep, and Ram applications. Popular platforms can include the Dodge Challenger R/T, Charger R/T, Durango, Chrysler 300, Jeep Grand Cherokee, and Ram trucks equipped with compatible 5.7L HEMI engines. Exact fitment varies by year, model, and engine configuration, so the original part numbers should be verified before ordering.

Whether you’re repairing a failed gasket, refreshing a higher-mileage HEMI, or assembling a performance engine, the OEM Mopar 5.7L VVT HEMI Cylinder Head Gasket Set provides the factory components needed to complete both banks. It is a smart addition to any properly planned cylinder head or engine project where dependable sealing and OEM fitment are priorities.
