Subject:what to do?

Okay,
190,000 miles on engine.  headgaskets leaking.  Should I bother replacing
them or just go for a new engine?  Money is tight.  I would replace the head
gaskets myself saving a lot in labor.  my fear is once I get in there the
heads may be so corroded that replacing the gaskets would only be a bandaid.
  What is the collective wisom here.  Engine is still strong so I am almost
inclined to just do the gasket job.  Just in case heads are bad, what would
a good used set go for??
thanks
jason
