David,
The process involves machining (cutting) a ring or groove around the
combustion chamber on the head. Then placing a wire "O-ring" into the cut
which protrudes above the surface of the head. When the head is torqued
down, additional force is placed, via the wire ring, atop the head gasket,
ensuring a better seal.
Hope this paints you a good enough word picture.
Good luck on the Judson installation... and enjoy the power!

Keep the sticky side down!
