I just bought another engine for $400.00. By the time i dealt with the heads and head gaskets it would of cost me easily over $500.00. If you replace the head gasket's and dont get the heads checked for cracks your taking a chance of ruining the new head gaskets. To get the head's checked it cost $150.00 so i recommend seeing if you can get a new engine. I got one from a junk yard for $400.00 and it only had 110,000 miles. The one in my car before had 155,000 so u save money and prevent more problems.
