head gasket question

ive been ridin on my blown gasket for about a month and a half. It smokes on and off and has overheated more times than I can remember. That being said I was wonderin if I needed to replace the head as well as the gaskets. I drive it everyday day and performance is about normal. Also what head would be good for my combo with no extramodifications.
88 sport 308 e-303, ported e7's, cobra intake, cold air, under drive pulleys, full exhaust, t5, 373's, smog pump removed, 255 pump, pressure regulator.

You can do a couple of different things:

1. save your money and pick up a set of used edelbrocks or similar head, I got mine for $700 shipped to my door and love them. While you got it all apart grab a cobra intake, new cam, and your set. (see my sig I'm running this combo now and like it alot)

2. find a cheap set of E7's for $0-$100 bux for piece of mind and change gasket

3. check out the heads or get them checked and slap new gaskets on...


It all depends on what your looking for..
