It is a TR3 engine, but looking at Randalls pictures he was putting the
rings on the gasket. The advantage I see there is that you can align
perfectly around the existing ridge, If I just put it on the liners, it
would likely be going over the ridge of the gasket in some places. Maybe it
doesn't matter if it is that exact?
Thanks,

Which engine? When I've seen this done on the TRactor engines, the wire gets
superglued to the top of the liners.

So I need to replace my headgasket and thought I would do the ring of fire
modification. However, my soldering is very very bad, so I thought I would
try the superglue. However the headgasket (Payen) seems to be laminated in
some sort of plastic that superglue will not stick to. I tried cleaning the
area with soapy water first and I tried 2 brands of superglue, nothing
seemed to help. Am I missing something?
Thanks,
