Subject:advice on head/gaskets?

I would like to get advice from those of you who have personally replaced
heads and gaskets on 1.9l wbx's.  I think I need to do this job since
there has been a small coolant leak on the right head -- and lately
extreme power loss, i.e.  I can't get out of first.  Does this sound like
head/gasket failure?
 I don't have a garage with a bunch of fancy tools, so I am wondering if
I can do the job in my driveway.  The only big repair I have made by
myself is a water pump replacement.  If I can learn something then all
the better because I am in no rush.     Thanks for any advice.
