if you have the proper tools and if you can remember how to put everthing back together it can be done on the weekend. i think it can be done in 2 day all depend on the person tech skills. i'll be posting the writeup tonite and you will see it really not difficult

hopefully i will be posting pics tonite

As for the head gasket it is a very simple thing to do. however, it take toooo long to remove all the parts and put them back on. I replaced the valve covers and started removing the timing belt ,cam etc in order to do the head gasket but i decided not to i really don't have the patience to put all those things back together.but i'll still give a quick how to for those who want to do it.
