Default XK8 head questions

Help! My mechanic tells me I gotta fix the heads on my '97 XK8. She was extremely overheated before I got her. A local guy put some block seal in her and it lasted about a year. She's only got 65K. I just don't know the best way to proceed. Is $1800 a reasonable estimate for repaired heads?

Goony, I replied to your post under my old post on timing chain tensioners (look above). That is the best recommendation I can give.
