The cost to replace a head gasket on a Chevy 350 ranges from $50.00 to as much as $500.00 to even $3,000.00

The actual cost of replacing the Chevy 350 Head Gasket depends on whether you do the job yourself or if you hire a shop to replace the head gaskets.

On a Chevy 350 engine you have 2 head gaskets that need replaced.

Even if only one head gasket is bad both head gaskets should be replaced at the same time.

It's not a quick or easy job to replace the head gaskets on a Chevy 350 engine.

You'll have to remove the intake manifold as well as the heads and even the power steering pump to be able to remove the drivers side head.

So you'll need a power steering pump pulley removal tool.

If you've never replaced head gaskets it can take you around 2 days or even 4 days from start to finish.

I've bought a head gasket kit for my Chevy 350 engine for $51.00 through Ebay and it took me 2 days working on the truck in my spare time to replace both head gaskets and put everything back together.
