how are you going to repair the head gasket?
do you mean the head, cracked corroded etc, then take it to a head shop to be done.

They crack tested the head, machined it and replaced the valve stem seals.....
$110 ALL UP. They also replaced something else (can't remember though!). DANDENONG REBORES - on cheltenham Rd. I then assisted my mechanic putting it all back together! Not recommended if your not use to muckin' with engines!!! Good luck! Cheers - Matt.
