Well, if your right head is the only problem with the engine and the engine
is otherwise sound, then, of course, it'll be cheaper to simply replace the
head.  However, first you have to know that it *is* the head that's the
problem.  Have you done any diagnostics, or had someone else do the
diagnosis, to know that the head, in fact, is the problem?
