Well... replaced the exhaust, clutch, and alternator so far in my 91
Vanagon. Now I noticed the drivers side head gasket is dripping antifreeze.
I guess it's time to do the gasket. I'm new to this problem so what should I
expect to pay for a set of complete heads in case mine need to be machined?
I figure I should buy a set to swap in for a quicker repair, but will have
the old set machined for back ups. I'm assuming I shouldn't drive the
Vanagon till it's been fixed or can I get away with a little driving till I
find new heads? It's dripping very slowly and not overheating. No fluid in
the oil so far. I noticed some used ones on ebay, is this asking for
trouble? Thanks for the advice,

BTW - anyone have a set of heads I can buy for my 2.1?
