I would say 600 is about right to pay someone to do it but if you've got a
good set of sockets and basic other things, mechanical skills being one of
them, it's not that bad. I just got my car back together from changing the
head gasket actually. One thing i will say is that if the gasket is leaking
anywhere it is a pretty good indication of the condition of the rest of the
gasket. I would be inclined to change it when you know it's bad(like now)
but before it gets any worse and could possibly cause more problems, or
leave you stranded somewhere.
Good luck
marshall
