thort everything was fine after we removed all the air locks from the radiator it drove fine and stayedd under half on the oil tempreture gauge then got home after testing it and heard a spraying noise and steam evaporating off the manifold, opened the bonnet to find the head gasket has gone

how much do you guys reckon to have it fixed? just hope the heads fine!
