i dunno about parts

but a whole engine with turbo etc would be around the $1200 mark

why would you want parts for a head gasket and a new engine? If you are going to replace an engine just go 1 or 1.5 j. If you are going to replace you head gasket , it is preferable but not essential that they pull the engine. If you are getting a metal head gasket then you need arp studs and bolts and need to get the head decked. If you are using the stock gasket just torque it down to correct specs (75nm I believe) . It should cost you about $800 to do a head gasket job with the bearings labour etc...
