Message	There are few people i would trust with working on my car. If your car didnt over heat, your head gasket may not have really went. Confirm it yourself. Do a compression check and have the cooling system pressure checked SOMEWHERE ELSE. It sounds like they are just trying to pull more money out of you with unnesecary work. If the head gasket is blown, just replace it and have the heads checked for warpage, dont dick around with JDM motors. You may want to consider having the entire motor rebuilt, if you feel it needs it or has high miles.
