the head will need to be pulled and sent to a machine shop to be cleaned and checked for cracks. if the head is cracked it may be cheaper to replaced the eng. unless you find a good deal on a head. it cost less than $100.00 to have the head checked. the total price depends on where you live call around for estimates.How much it will cost to change head on car?

If you're handy at all and have access to tools, good tools, get a shop manual and try it yourself. If you don't have this access, then find a high school or trade school that teaches auto repair. The students will do the work very cheaply. The teacher will supervise and it will come out fine.
