For all these Pacificas which have the dreaded head gasket/leaking coolant issue, wouldn't it be safer and no more expensive to replace the entire engine rather than replace a cylinder head? Dealers are quoting a cylinder head anywhere from $3,000 to $5,000. An entire used engine can be had for around $3k. Installation by an independent mechanic has to be close to the total for a cylinder head from a Chrysler dealer.
