If you are mechanically inclined, I would go for it. But you also have to make sure nothing else is wrong like the head cracked or something if it overheated. If the gasket blew and overheated, you'll have to pay for some head work, but only a couple hundred to straighten it depending on where you live.

If you can do it yourself, for gaskets and head bolts and all other parts that you have to/should change while the heads are out, you could have a good running LT1 for around $2,000.
