I found another shop that just did 2 of these last week. They say they charge $750 to change out the head gasket and the timing gears and chain while its all apart (which is a good idea because I've got over 130,000 miles on the motor). And if the cylinder head is bad it will only be another $150 for that.
Just for kicks I called the local Toyota dealer... to do the same work (head gasket & timing gear kit) they quoted $1,132.00 Then said a remanufactured cylinder head would run almost that much by itself if it was bad! That's nearly $2,000 to change a cylinder head! Talk about trying to break one off up your rear end! I couldn't help but laugh out loud, and thank them for their time to work up the quote.
So, I guess I answered my own question.
