Why?
You just tackled one of the biggest jobs you can do, and it worked. Admittedly, a head gasket is another huge job, but it's seriously not hard. It just takes time.
Cost-wise, I'm in this for like... $400, maybe? Call it $500 to be safe. You're not going to buy a car or a motor for that, and a motor swap is a bit more work as it is.
We could have had my M3 turned around in a few days, had I not been a total derpface and broken that timing chain guide.
