new moder motor?

howdy ,so its been a while .but im thinking of warrenty having some one else do it. well thats top end or just replace whole motor . see the thing is i have the narly head gasket leak n valves are probably not great . so i have to ask myself is it worth just doing heads n gasket maybe change timing chain ? /thinking about $2500 .darnit thats so far into taring it out that yes lets replace it all!

so now im stuck with rebuilf or new or even does ordering used lighting motor sound safe? well i a
was told a diesel shop can rebuild with lil more performance parts for aboot $4000 but reprogram take somewhere else after they build it but ford is only place to... program? wounder if dyno jet? but ford said a NEW motor wold be like $6000 ? so i was hoping for yalls thoughts n ideas. thanks n word up

I would try finding a actual speed shop preferably with a dyno and getting it tuned there.
