Buy some tools with the money you are gonna use for the labor and do the job yourself. It's not that hard if you do things by the book.

lots of site that describe in full detail. paying hundreds would be a waste. dont need many tools either.

if you're not confident working on cars, changing a headgasket is something that should be left to the pros IMO.
Going and buying all of these tools would prolly cost more than paying someone to change it IMO.
A good torque wrench alone will be more than half of the cost of labour.

your motor is shot. replace the hole thing. you'll regret just changing the head.
