A groove is cut into the surface ether the head or the block not bowth, and
then wire is inserted into the groove welding wire is used to great effect,
then a conventional type, good quality head gasket can be used, and when
tourqued down gives better sealing qualitys

IIRC the gas filled ones are Wills-type rings - any idea who fitted them? I've not personally heard of anyone using Wills rings on a 200 block, as most (in as far as the ring type sealing method, as most people would opt for a WRC or Cometic type gasket nowadays) are either wire rung (solid wire used), or Coopers ringed (tend to go "jus' like that!"
