For starters my car overheated due to the fan stop working. I'm unsure how hot the car actually got but coolant was blowing out the coolant tank pretty bad.
My question is and I know this has been asked several times before, but I'm not looking to mod the car any further. I'm just looking for some direction for when the car is apart on what to look for. Of course the heads will be checked before going back on the car. If the head(s) are bad what route should I take? If the heads are ok should I replace anything? I'm not looking to do cams because I do not plan on changing the blower and although the sound would be AWESOME I can not justify the added cost.
If it's just head gasket what can I expect to pay for this job? Last I saw ranged anywhere from $1200 to $2000 and I'm assuming the big difference in cost is due to machine work and grade of hardware.
Thanks for your help in advance.
