We are often asked this question, but unfortunately there is no way of determining the exact cost until the head is removed and tested, it is not just a case of replacing a gasket and off you go...., the head may be cracked, warped or bent, and often with this after straightening you may get a cracked valve seat that need replacing, as a rule hear o/hauls can start at around $1200, not that AU as i am in Australia, so it is a sizable repair so be prepared for the worst and it it's not that bad, you are in front.
