possible head gasket change
Just found out that there is a leak around the head gasket on my '95 olds Achieva. Warped or cracked head, this I do not know. Is this repair worth making if the head is not reusable.

Had this done on my wife's 95 Achieva last year to the tune of $1200 - was able to just have the heads resurfaced. In my mind, it was was worth it because I believe the car has several more useful years to us.

Right. Depends a lot on the OVERALL condition of the vehicle and how well you maintain it, i.e. will you be able to recoup the cost of the repair in extending its service life.
