If you check the heads, replace headgaskets, do the rear main seal and install LN Bearing fix what should this all cost? I'm sure there must be a few folks who can chime in!
I rather doubt you will get away with "check the heads, replace head gaskets" to repair a coolant leak in one of these engines. You need to be aware that these engines never blow head gaskets, so the coolant leak more likely involves a cracked head.
