Default how hard is it to fix a blown head gasket on a 1994 honda prelude?

just wondering how hard it is, if its easy then i got a good deal
the guy wants 500 bucks for it, but thanks ill ask him if there is anything else wrong with it, he did say something about all i have to do is pull off the cylinder head and he has the new gasket already.. thanks
srry another thing i dont know if this matters but it is a 94 honda prelude si with a 2.3l dohc h23 engine with aftermarket exhaust

Its not hard if you know what your doing. But if you don't have someone there who knows what they're doing beside you then your wasting your time trying to do it. some shop usually do it for around 400 bucks give or take a hundred, but yes i would recommend a shop because if you mess it up you have no one to blame but yourself and mechanics sometimes charge more if you took it apart and they have to figure out where all the parts go

If you bought a car with a blown head gasket, you got a bad deal, in fact unless you got this '94 Honda for $50 you got a terrible deal.
Besides, you don't even know if there is any damage, to the heads(cracked or warped) or the block(cracked or warped).
You have mucho work in front of you.
