Yes, on the forum we've come across this before from garages. KV6 head gaskets are a different design to the 1.8 litre item which has the reputation of failure. It would take serious abuse to damage one so I have to ask you Rick, is there more to reveal about this car's history (particularly regarding overheating)?

In the meantime there's a business based on the south coast which has specific experience of the 75/ZT and they travel. I think they're in the Brighton area but I can't remember the name. They've been recommended on the forum many times. I'd recommend that you consult them.
